It *is* in the vpopmail library.  The problem is likely that you're 
using authdaemon with courier (which is the default).  If you want 
roaming imap users, compile courier-imap without authdaemon and use 
authvchkpw.  Also, you'll need to run couriertcpd as vpopmail.vchkpw, or 
run the pop server as root.  This is so that both pop and imap write to 
the open-smtp file as the same owner.

See http://www.mail-archive.com/vchkpw@inter7.com/msg06455.html for 
Sam's opinion on the matter...
