The proxy_maybe is working well for us with MySQL auth. We have a much more complicated SQL query as we are doing a lot more but the example was able to get us the correct Dovecot specific portion working.
Thanks for the info we are starting to migrate users over to Dovecot now that we put these proxy_maybe servers in front of our legacy pop/imap server.

At the bottom of this page it gives a query example of "SELECT NULL AS password, ." but that does not seem to allow for us to use the proxy_maybe
Right. The example is for a proxy-only server that doesn't know the users' passwords. I added just now another example there that shows how to use proxy_maybe. It's untested though, so please let me know if it doesn't work.
