Is it possible to automatically authenticate Dovecot users using the same type of mechanism which makes Postfix able to simply check SMTP users using the mynetworks variable?
Basically I would like to be able to authenticate users on my designated networks automatically, and require a password for those outside this network.
Is this possible?
this doesnt make any sense. how would you know what the inbox is for the user if he didnt provide a username?
Well, he only said require a *password* - presumably he means still require a valid username but skip the password check for clients in the mynetworks subnet... which, imo, is a really, really bad idea security wise, so I won't even try to help with an answer...
