NAME

       auth_passwd - Change account's password

SYNOPSIS

           #include <courierauth.h>

       int rc=auth_passwd(const char *service, const char *username, const char *oldpassword,
                          const char *newpassword);

DESCRIPTION

       If username´s password is oldpassword, it is replaced with newpassword.  service identifies which
       so-called "service"´s password is changed; like “imap” or “pop3”. Some Courier authentication library´s
       back-end module can use different passwords for different services.  service is ignored if this is not
       the case.

RETURNS

       auth_passwd returns 0 if the password was succesfully changed. A non-0 error code indicates a failure..
