The primary advantage of using this instead of the IMAP module is that a CalDAV sync doesn't cause syslog to be spammed with lots of login/logout events in a short amount of time (I've seen bursts of 10/sec sustained for about a minute during initial download of a calendar).

Could you make this python3 compatible as well? |

@jbergstroem I don't have the time right now nor do I see myself having it in the foreseeable future. Feel free to take my changes and make it Python 3 compatible yourself, or alternatively close this pull request. |

This adds code to authenticate against a Dovecot server without resorting to IMAP. It uses Dovecot's Authentication Protocol to communicate directly with Dovecot through a local/unix socket. This is functionally similar to the Courier auth module.
