That's certainly one way, and IMO the simplest to get started with. Other
ways include LDAP, mysql, pgsql authentication.

If the Debian packager provided information on how it was built, consult it.
If they did not, either complain to them, or build it again from source.

You may find that you have authuserdb support already. If sqwebmail was
built with both authdaemond and authuserdb, the authuserdb code will be
built in to authdaemond already. (In which case there will not be a separate
'authuserdb' file in the package)
