Hi,
I would like to know what do you use to let people change their email password ? I have a dedicated server with postfix and dovecot on it for a couple of web sites and I need to be able to let them change their mail password ... but I havent found any documentation on that :(
If you have any feedbacks, tutorials, website, ... let me know ;)

++ THis depends where and how your passwords are stored if you have them i.e in mysql you can change them with webguis/webmailcleints like horde ,squirrelmail

Roberts right, without you advising how you are authing, it's near impossible to give guidance, but if you are using mysql, the change_sqlpass plugin is what you want, its also very easy to modify it to change other passwords stored in mysql like ftp/http auth at same time.

It cannot be a dovecot issue, this one:-)
The way you add the accounts to the system is what matters. You have to find a way around it. Do you use webmail? Which implementation?
