[Dovecot] sendmail with dovecot sasl
Hi, I was wondering if I can make sendmail use dovecot's SASL implementation...maybe I should somehow compile it against dovecot's SASL ? My idea is to make sendmail and dovecot authenticate against one central user/password repository. Is this possible ?
thank you.
P.S. I want to use virtual users

Sendmail uses cyrus-sasl (only?).
You can make cyrus-sasl and dovecot-sasl use "common master" e.g. LDAP or PAM. "LDAP centric" approach is a standard recommendation if you plan multi server mail system with multiple "mailbox servers"/"filtering gateways".
