I have an email server running iRedMail, which manages user accounts via MySQL. I'd like to have the ability to update a user password within your webmail client, but searching around it seems the only way is via poppassd? I don't believe poppassd can connect to a database for user accounts can it? Do you have any other plugins available to change a password? Or any basic documentation so I could write up my own?

Thanks!

POPPASSD plugin is the only method for that available right now. You can use that plugin as a starting point, as it ensures there are fields for changing password in user account settings area, and you can implement your own code for changing password within the plugin code. Plugin has information about user account the password is set for, that should suffice for any backend code; actually, if current password might be required, it's sent in there too.

Igor,
Thanks, after attempting to make my own plugin based on the example POPPASSD plugin, I actually came across this post - http://www.afterlogic.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4948 - which has a link to a very nicely built password change plugin for mySQL - only needed to modify a few database field names and it worked perfectly, much better than my attempt anyway!
