Re: [Dovecot] Multiple Authentication Databases

Yes, but the problem there is that each database is controlled by different untrusted individuals. If someone were to create a username/password on a database that is higher in the list, they could authenticate as that user, which is undesirable.

I had a look there, but that doesn't have anything on a

    Hi Everyone,

    I wish to run Dovecot on my "Front End" outbound mail relay,
    and use
    Dovecot purely for authentication purposes. However, each
    mysql database
    for each domain will be on a separate server. Is there a way
    for dovecot
    to authenticate against different databases depending on
    domain name?

    Thanks
