I'm trying to use the checkpassword interface to do a password check and if the check succeeds I mount the user home directory (including mail) using the users login password and uid.

May I ask why you mount the user directory? Couldn't it just be already mounted and you simply use the PAM interface?

passdb {
	driver = pam
}

userdb {
	driver = passwd
}
