Hello,
It would be fairly trivial to have dbmail save the username;
I'd think the more difficult part would be configuring your mta
to use it. dbmail-smtp has nothing to do with pbsp, unless your
mta (after using pbsp to authorize sending a message) happens to
send a message to someone locally and uses dbmail-smtp to save it
("dbmail-smtp" is somewhat of a misnomer, as the program has nothing
to do with smtp, it just accepts mail from your mta and saves it in
the db). I'm most familiar with postfix myself, and I know of no
way to do what you want without changing both dbmail-{pop3d,imapd}
and postfix to make it work (postfix only checks a client IP address
in the check_client_access map - exactly how pbsp works). For this
to work you'd also have to either use [EMAIL PROTECTED] style usernames
(so the username stored in pbsp table matches that in smtp FROM),
or maintain a table of acceptable FROM addresses for a given username,
at which point the changes to dbmail just got a little more
complicated.
I'd agree that the functionality could have some benefit for people
who can't run SASL, to overcome that deficiency in pop before smtp.
Of course we don't use SASL yet, and once we start, I might instead
just recommend you use that and forget pbsp. :)
