I’m not familiar with dovecot code, but as I’m using ldap, so I know that the ldap authdb support is not part of dovecot-core package, and is provided as a plugin in an extra package.
And a quick look at the libauthdb_ldap.so file (installed by the dovecot-ldap package) shows me these symbols: authdb_ldap_init / passdb_ldap_plugin
So I guess that you don’t have to search very far to find such examples.

Hello,
That's actually great news. The perspective of working in-tree didn't make me particularly happy.
Could you point me to any documentation or examples? While I can find many plugins in the repo and around the Internet, I could find none which add authdb drivers.

Greetings!
I'm planning to implement a new auth driver. It's going to be, in concept, similar to the Lua and CheckPassword drivers, in that it allows an user program to carry out the authentication and user enumeration steps.
If you do this, please make it as 3rd party repository. Dovecot auth
supports plugins.
