I have a suggestion on this subject. What about the possibility of
binding a realm to a local address for cyrus (IP based vhost)? Yes,
authentication and named vhosts via username and realm is ideal, but
given that that information is usually not explicitly send by the
client, if the imap server could assign the realm based on some implicit
information such as the IP address, then there is an answer that should
work while we all wait for more widespread support of SASL realms. If
there was a patch to do this, would it be accepted into CVS?
