[SM-PLUGINS] vpopmail account administration

[David M. <dj...@mc...>]

I've got a squirrelmail/vpopmail setup and I'm trying to find the
easiest way to allow users to change passwords, set forwards, etc,
basically do those things that are available via qmailadmin.
It looks like the 'vpopmail account administration' plugin is what
I want but it comes with a rather large caveat - web server must
run as same user as vpopmail.

Question 1) Is there another way for my users, via the squirrelmail
interface, to modify their password, forwards, etc (in the vpopmail 
MySQL db) with another plugin(s)?

Question 2) Is there a nicer method, using SUID or something to allow
'vpopmail account administration' to run without having to change
apache's
uid?

How does everyone else let their users manage their own passwords, etc?
