[…] Looking at documentation, at [1], in the "auth_user" variable says: "... If username changes during authentication, this value contains the original username..." what leads me to think that there is some way to change the user during the authentication process, but I don't know how or maybe I'm assuming wrong.
If I fully understand, user switching is done by having userdb return arbitrary uid,gid,user for the principal used in authentication. After being switched, you ARE the other one, so in my (possibly limited) understanding you can no longer read your own mail. That might not be intended?
