I have chosen this solution and I have now trivial
question. How can I make shadow file readable by mail
user, too (and that it stay so because I think that
there is some script which check files permissions).

I have temporary set it to world readable and now AUTH
works with exim emulation (exim with -bh swtich)
where I send \0user\0pass base64 encoded string. But
it
doesn't work with Pegasus Mail.

Does anybody knows what are proper positions of
username
and password in that string (is 2,3 or 1,2)?

And "server prompt" should be:

server_prompts = "Username:::Password::" (as Vineet
post)

or

server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::" (as ther is
in example in exim.conf)
