You can authenticate users via IMAP just like with LDAP, but it isn't as complicated to set up an IMAP server.

This library could be useful.

@wxiaoguang commented on GitHub (Jun 3, 2023):

I do no think IMAP could be used as an auth source.

SMTP is generally safe because even if the password is leaked, no one could access your inbox.

But, if your IMAP password is leaked, others can access your inbox.

Well, in most cases the SMTP password and IMAP password are the same, IMO neither SMTP nor IMAP is the proper auth method, avoid using them.
