How would one authenticate against the shadow password database? That
is something I'm trying to get up&runnin for a while now, but it won't
work. I hoped that the Exim book could answer this, but no luck ;) Or,
if it is easier, what would I enter in the server_condition if I
wanted to check against a plain text file, I think it is done via
"lsearch" then, with such a format:

user1     pass1
user2     pass2
...


Every user in this file would be allowed to relay.

Thanks,
 Johannes                            mailto:jmp@its-toasted.org
