Thanks for that idea, unfortunately %{ seems to be misinterpreted and
the mail-filter script recieves the rest of the string "userdb:pass}" as
a parameter, instead of the password.

So, do I get this right? During login the content of dovecots %w
variable is supposed to be stored in a userdb field, called userdb_pass,
and the %{x} is supposed to get the content of that field?
