i'd like to configure dovecot to,

secure auth OK) of, imap login based with conditional rules based on
the guest's IP address.

Unfortunately Dovecot v1.x can't do any of this, except for "tls  
required/not required" part. Upcoming Dovecot v2.0 could do all of  
this though. For now you'd have to run a separate Dovecot instance  
with a separate config file for each such IP. Or, of course, Dovecot  
v2.0 alpha1 should be out pretty soon and testers are always  
appreciated. :)

In v2.0 you can do things like:

local_ip 1.2.3.4 {
  ssl_cert_file = </etc/ssl/certs/domain.org
  login_greeting = blahblah
}
remote_ip 192.168.0.0/16 {
  # ...
}
