The correct way to handle this IMAP-wise would be to return the EXPIRED 
response code (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5530#section-3).  But this 
requires client support to report to the end user.  (And also requires that 
Dovecot would be able to determine from authentication source that the 
credentials are expired, as opposed to incorrect.)
