It's never been clear to me where IMAP stops and SASL starts as it
relates to this... but it's my impression that Cyrus SASL has nothing at
all to do with SSL/TLS, and only handles the authentication details
after Cyrus IMAP has collected them.
I guess that means that what I want to do will actually require changes
in both Cyrus IMAP and SASL... time for more research :-)
