Hi.
I wonder if there any plans of finishing "multiple passwords for single user"
feature?
Few months old thread mentioned this:
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-July/097217.html
and even a patch that unfortunately was never finished
http://dovecot.org/patches/2.0/auth-multi-password-2.0.diff
Multiple passwords for single user are great since allow easy password
management for users. For example you could have one password on a laptop, one
on a phone, one on a tablet. Revoking access to the device is as easy as
dropping single password and it doesn't affect other devices. There are more
use cases.
Untill that happens (not that great) workaround exists:
