Yeah, and I will end up getting burned if I make more propaganda on
postfix-users about anything for Cyrus.  Basically, postfix will add

It does.  Amos, would you kindly post this little bit on the postfix list,

Propagating auth info in postfix requires internal changes to the queue
format, though, so it will take its sweet time...
