[Dovecot] multiple auth= statements

[Stephan van Beerschoten]

I'm new to dovecot and it's configurations. Reading the config file, I
have a question regarding having multiple auth= lines in there.

Is this some sort of a pass-through or fail-through system of
authentications like where if a user is not authenticated using 'pam',
then the second method is tried (which might be sql or plain passwd-txt) ?
Am I assuming the right thing here ?

I have system-users, but am planning to migrate the majority of those
users to a virtual_mailbox system (using postfix) where they have no
more system-users . I just want to be sure this will work.

If anybody has setup a system with postfix and virtual mailboxes in
combination with dovecot, and wants to swap stories and setups, I'd be
grateful :)

/Stephan
