Template:Extra Module This module is intended for admins who run a shell/web/email/etc server and want to provide ZNC access to their existing users. By using this module, when your users login to ZNC - either with their IRC client or via the webadmin module - their password will be checked against your IMAP server instead of the ZNC config file.

Usage

Arguments

This user module takes up to three arguments. The arguments can be [server] [[+]port] [UserFormatString].

Read loading modules to learn more about loading modules.

If you want to set the arguments manually use this as reference:

• Server: should be self explanatory. It is the IMAP server to connect to when trying to authenticate an incoming user.
• Port: is the port that your IMAP server listens on. Use a + before the port to connect using SSL.
• UserFormatString: will format the incoming username.
  • You use a % to represent the username like so.. %@foo.com - This will send fred@foo.com to your imap server when a user tries to authenticate as the user fred.
  • You can force the user to supply the full email address leaving this string blank or supplying just % by itself.

If any arguments are left blank the following defaults will be used:

• Server: localhost
• Port: 143 (non-SSL)
• UserFormatString: Empty

Note: SSL must be enabled when you want the module to connect to the IMAP server using SSL.
