Hi,
Further to the other thread about password guessing activities against
our dovecot, I would like to implement application specific passwords on
our dovecot.
Googling results in some documents, but they are all a bit older:
https://www.happyassassin.net/2014/08/26/adding-application-specific-passwords-to-dovecot-when-using-system-user-accounts/
https://www.dgsiegel.net/news/2013_05_21-application_specific_passwords_for_dovecot
http://www.justinbuchanan.com/blog/category/RoundCube
http://www.justinbuchanan.com/blog/post/2012/12/02/Application-Specific-Passwords-for-Dovecot-and-Postfix
Those articles are interesting, but also rather old. (I realse that this
does not neccesarily mean: irrelevant or bad)
Is there anone here with some additional notes, ideas, tips, trics on
setting up application specific passwords with dovecot with virtual
users? We are using samba AD as an authentication backend.
