Re: [Dovecot] New userdb backend for checkpassword like programs

My solution:

1. The userdb-only checkpassword script sees no AUTHORIZED in the environment and returns with an exit code != 0[0]

You assume that the script actually checks this. There's no
requirement that a userdb-only script needs to bother doing it. The
use of AUTHORIZED environment is necessary only if the script wants to
handle both passdb and userdb.
