I can't use 'passwd' to update popa3d's auth files, so I need to generate them some other way.Solid-pop3d (CVS only for VHosting) comes with spadm for this, but if you're using standard /etc/shadow type crypt() entries, use htpasswd.I can't find spadm in the solid-pop3d source. Are you sure it's there?
Sorry ... I did all that at my former job. ;-) I should've said spdbm.
But this will not do Linux crypt() things, it does BSD $1$xxxxx things.
Really - htpasswd (from Apache) does what you want.

ccurtis@mail:~$ htpasswd
Usage:
htpasswd [-cmdps] passwordfile username
htpasswd -b[cmdps] passwordfile username password
htpasswd -n[mdps] username
htpasswd -nb[mdps] username password
-c Create a new file.
-n Don't update file; display results on stdout.
-m Force MD5 encryption of the password.
-d Force CRYPT encryption of the password (default).
-p Do not encrypt the password (plaintext).
-s Force SHA encryption of the password.

ccurtis@mail:~$ dpkg -S htpasswd

I'm currently considering using chpwdfile[1]. Unfortunately it isn'tpackaged for Debian and it's the author's first C program.1. http://eclipse.che.uct.ac.za/chpwdfile/
