Is it possible to run different authentications for pop3 and imap ? What i need is to give access to some clients to pop3 only and to other to imap only. I'm using postgres as a backend. What i actually need is 2 separate queries for userdb, one to select with "WHERE imap_access = 1" and the other one with "WHERE pop3_access = 1" ( that's just an example ). I'm using 1.1.2 but i plan on upgrading to either 1.1.4 or 1.2.

You could use something like:

password_query =
select .. where .. and '%s' = 'pop3' and pop3_access = 1
union select .. where .. and '%s' = 'imap' and imap_access= 1
