# Look up data for an account. authservice identifies the service the user is
# trying to use - e.g. pop3, imap, webmail etc.
#
#
# If the account is not known, return FAIL<newline>. If there is a temporary
# failure, such as a database being down, authProg should terminate (thereby
# closing stdin/stdout) without sending any response. authdaemon will restart
# the pipe module for the next request, thus ensuring it is properly
# reinitialized.
