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?
