So <https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/PasswdFile> ?

${lookup {$local_part@$domain}lsearch{/etc/dovecot/passwd} {yes}{no}}

https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-file_and_databa
se_lookups.html

See also ${extract{<number>}{<separators>}{<string1>}{<string2>}{<string3>}}
to get fields from the results, once you've confirmed the key is either
present or not. Lookup results are cached so doing the same search
repeatedly is usually light-weight.

So this might be the password crypt field:
${extract{2}{:}{${lookup
{$local_part@$domain}lsearch{/etc/dovecot/passwd}}}}
which might be usable as the second parameter to the
crypteq{Supplied}{Needed} expansion condition for use in an SMTP
Authenticator.

For stuff like wildcard entries of auxiliary data to be a default for anyone
in the domain, look at "lsearch*@" instead of "lsearch" and
"partial2-lsearch*@" etc. See the docs for more details.
