And you are normally only exposing doveadm functionality in internal,

In future release we will add master authentication too. Now you can
use api key or doveadm password which are essentially same thing.

Hmm, so anybody who has the API key can send any doveadm commands?

I guess something like /etc/sudoers for API keys would be good?

Did I miss something?


Some mails later, I got to understand:

- API key is not authentication, but it is authorization

So, when I plan to enable the HTTP API, I must protect the webpage where the API key lives in by the usual means, eg. HTTP Basic Authentication.

Aki also told me, that there is a configurable list of allowed commands somewhere.

The wiki also links to another (parent) page with more details. The number of commands is limited now, but may grow.
