DRAC, pop-before-smtp and other such implementations really is a "broken" way of implementing the desired result, IMHO, and I would much prefer this code stays out of dovecot. You should be using SMTP auth. Really.
I agree that it's not as good an answer as SMTP auth, but SMTP auth isn't always an option. *-before-SMTP is. That's why it's popular, and that's why it will exist for dovecot whether Timo puts it in the distribution or not. It just makes things easier if he does.
On this note,
has anyone else tried this patch ? with Timo's modifications to his original patch I got it updating the DRAC db, but only able to use the local interfaces.
I'm not sure dovecot is structured, but maybe the patch should be in the auth parts of the code?
don't shoot me :) Just seeing if someone else is interested in DRAC atm with dovecot.
