Story is I deployed a webmail with certificate based authentication that
substitues a global master password
(http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers) when the certificate
matches. The webmail accesses the inbox by imap and reuses the password for
smtp through postfix.

I configured dovecot sasl authentication to allow a particular global password
to be allowed from one IP address of the webmail server. Unfortuanately it
seems as though postfix doesn't pass rip= (remote ip) or the other AUTH
parameters of the protocol (http://dovecot.org/doc/auth-protocol.txt).

Is adding these parameters to postfix's sasl authentication a useful feature
request?

Should I be doing this another way?
