Nope, it does not. Sqwebmail and Courier (both using the Courier
Authentication Lib now) do the authentication via libvpopmail.a not
vchkpw. This is the reason you have to recompile them if you update
vpopmail.

I once used a patched vpopmail version by Vladimir Kabanov that enabled
me to have Courier IMAP auth against vchkpw. I would prefer if Courier
and Sqwebmail would support this.

Exactly.
