[imp] poppassd problem with IMP 2.2

Hi,

I think SuSE email server uses LDAP as authentication system, so if you like
to change a users password, you got to change it in ldap, not like in
/etc/passwd.
Poppassd uses /etc/passwd.
You'll have to write you're own password script.
I've had the same "problem", but not with SuSE Email server II. Just on my
own system, I'm experimenting on LDAP auth. I'm going to implement some
source to change te password in Horde (sork passwd), when I find the time to
do this.

Greetz,
Brecht
