[Dovecot] related, but off-topic: how to allow users to change password?

My dovecot is currently configured to authenticate vs. a userdb/passdb
passwd-file that contains, for each user:
username:passhash:5000:5000::/path/to/home::userdb_mail=/path/to/maildir
Is it possible to let users authenticate and change their passwords? There
are some webmail client add-ons that allow such things if users are system
accounts or in a MySQL/LDAP db. Does anyone else use passdb/userdb
passwd-files like above and have a method for allowing users to change their
passwords from the web?
Sorry for the slightly off-topic question, but hoping another Dovecot admin
has solved this problem. Preference is to not to be tied to any particular
webmail client just for this change password feature.
