Interesting.
How do you authenticate POP/IMAP against this userdb? (PAM module?)
How does it compare with the nsswitch.conf-enabled db?

Actually, that's not WING. You're talking about the Herald mail cluster,

works with any sendmail-compatible interface. I'm running it fine with
Postfix without modifications.
