I'm quite excited about seeing this feature added to Postfix. I have a
similar configuration, and have been putting off making the proposed changes
myself. I had previously posted on the Dovecot mailing list [1] to no avail.
I'm happy to know that there are at least two of us out there who would
benefit from this feature!
