Thanks for the info Sam,

I installed from a package so no install docs. I'll go and grap the source and take a look.

Since userdb is not going to give me the users name during authentication, what other authentication method will work, and not require system accounts?

I do have a couple of concerns... In Sqwebmail, in Create Message, the From: field is editable. In the past, on other systems, I have tried to make the 'changing of the From field' more buried or not possible. I have a range of users from dangerously inexperienced to devious experimenters. I'd rather not give them the ability to send their mail as from someone else.

See “Runtime configuration” in sqwebmail's INSTALL file.

You need to define the 'wbnochangingfrom' account option, either on a per-account basis, or as a global default.

Also, I notice that there does not seem to be a way to identify the user (full name). Each users email does not always identify who they actually are, so would like to attach their name to the email address as is done in other email systems. Am I missing something?

The full name will be used provided that it's supplied by whatever authentication module you're using.
