rdfield,

The existing module can be used for system user verification and download the mail to client side.

I had modified commandPASS function to handle both cases. The system user verification is working properly and mail gets download to the client machine. In the other part (for DB authentication), verification has been done but mail downloading is not working ... i think it has to handle different structure and separate function for that.

The code i wrote in the commandPASS :

if ($uidok == 0)
{
 #### Used for 
 if ($fqdn eq "dev.com")
 {
  ### Starts Database connection
  ### Query for getting password
  if ($password1 eq $password2) ## $password1 is from client machine a
+nd $password2 from database
  {
  #### INCOMPLETE PART ###
  ### Here i want to handle the mails (Path say : usr/domainname/useri
+d/mailfolder/
  ### mail folder contains file1,file2 etc (file1,file1 represents eac
+h mail...)
  ### Read the mail from the user mail folder. Each mail is stored as 
+a single file.
  ### I would like to read each mail and download it to the client mac
+hine
  }
  else
  {
  print "-ERR access denied $uid $arg $CRLF";
  &TimeIsUp("Incorrect Password... :\($CRLF");
  }
 }
 else
 {
 ### Used for System Users...
 #### WORKING PROPERLY....
 ### The actual code from the module

 }
}

Hope i explained my problem ... If not clear, i can post entire code here .... Lines of code is very large.

Thanks a lot for your comment
Waiting for your help

Looks pretty straightforward to me. There's plenty of modules out there to help you. Try looking at DBI (the DataBase Interface module and its associated drivers) for your database connectivity and the various Mail:: modules (all available via http://search.cpan.org. There's even one called Mail::POP3Client...could be worth a close look.
