Package: dspam-webfrontend
Version: 3.6.4-2
Followup-For: Bug #356835

My preference would be for dspam-webfrontend to not attempt to install
any authentication modules at all; it merely should communicate the need
for authentication and how such authentication maps to email accounts.

With the default Debian setup the mod_auth_shadow module requires that
the Apache server gain read-access to the shadow file, which is not
something I'd want to do on my system, as it undoes the security offered
by the shadow file in the first place.
