Is it possible to run a bash script for authentication where a 0 exit

do is create a shadow IMAP server that authenticates against a
different server. That way my server will use the same passwords as an
existing server.
So what I would need is for dovecot to pass the username and password
to my script, I attempt to log in remotely and if I succeed I allow
access on my side. My side will be used to configure black lists and
where spam is dragged from their side to my side. (I'm a spam
filtering company)
Have you looked at the checkpassword [1] and imap [2] authdatbase
descriptions in the wiki?
