it's correct to divide the authorization process (is the user authorized to 
login) and the 
authentication one (is the user who he claims to be), so let's forget the ip 
address!

ok, do you think that the following statements are out of the authlib's 
purpose/capability:
- variables of authldaprc could be changed dynamically 
- authlib can return a special error code such as "user not allowed"

if so, which part of courier-imap can take care about things like checking if 
the "(authenticated) user is allowed"?

Thank you *very* much,
Rob.
