vpopmail uses vchkpw as an authentication mechanism, and with tcpserver I can do relaycontrol (based on vchkpw) with roaming users. Is there anyone who have tried this, and succeeded? Right now I use two imap services to accomplish this (bincimap has support for vchkpw).
The proper way to authenticate roaming users is SMTP AUTH and not a botch like SMTP-after-POP/IMAP (which I assume you're trying to do as otherwise, the IMAP/POP3 server isn't concerned with relaying mail). SMTP AUTH works independently of Dovecot or BincIMAP.
