Since Postfix doesn't send the IP to Dovecot, there isn't
anything on Dovecot's side you can do. You could try asking about
this in Postfix list.. Someone at least had a patch which allowed
sending local IP to Dovecot
(http://marc.info/?t=119306971600010&r=1&w=2). Maybe it sends
remote IP as well.
I wrote that patch. It passes both endpoints (remote & local)
through to dovecot. This lets you restrict smtp-auth just like pop3
or imap using the remote IP. In my case, I had played around with
a quick hack for doing per-ip realming (using the local IP) w/
dovecot-sql.
Hi Andrew,
Where can i find the patch?
And more importantly, was it submitted to Wietse for possible
integration with the source? I'd be interested in this functionality in
the future, but I don't like manually applying patches (I'm not a
programmer, yadda yadda)...
