Hello,

Is there anybody writing/have written authentication module similar to authmysql that uses postgres?

I'm using postgresql to store my data, I don't want to use mysql (have my reasons) and I don't very like the idea to generate userdb file from data in the database. The last solution is probably OK, but I do generate cdb databse to use in Exim lookups already (for speed) and don't want to have another extra copy of the data. IMAP wont be uset too often and I want to make authentication using data from the database.

I've written a small prototype of the authpg module but with my C the amount of C experience I've got I don't really trust what I've written :) (my second C prog).

I would really like to hear from people who's using postgres with courier and probably have their own authpg and possible share their code with the rest of us.

If no authpg exists, it'd be nice to use my ugly one as a starting point, wouldn't it?
