you don't HAVE TO use certs for client identification. you however CAN
use certs for client identification. this is a big difference.

have the same. i learned a friend of mine did something like ${lookup
radius{ for exim :> dunno how complete or usable though.. all you have
to do now is pop in a radius auth module in courier (if there's not
one already) and your clients have only one password that takes them
everywhere. and, as an added bonus, it doesn't cause you admin
headache.
