I'm trying to get authentication to work without PAM and just use the standard shadow and passwd files.
auth default {
userdb passwd { }
passdb shadow { }

This seems to be valid code to use /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. Maybe..
My linux distro is using Salted MD5. Though Dovecot keeps telling me that authentication failed. It doesn't give me any error messages regarding the config. Set auth_debug_passwords=yes. And show the exact log messages. And exact dovecot -n output.
