Howdy,

I'm going back to this matter, to finish the replacement os cyrus SASL 
per dovecot-SASL.
I want to have the same functionality that i had before, that is, SASL 
check's AUTH agains a different table than the users one.

I was looking in the dovecot-SASL docs, and i see nothing related. 
(https://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL)
Does someone have an ideia on how to achieve it or how it could be done?
I mean, how could i check this different table to be checked in the 
auth?

service auth {
...
   unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
     mode = 0660
     # Assuming the default Postfix user and group
     user = postfix
     group = postfix
   }
   ...
}

Thanks in advanced,
