We use postfix with dovecot as a sasl backend, and have run into a small
issue with the XCLIENT extension and SASL.  smtpd_sasl_activate is
called only upon the initial connection to smtpd, and that sets the sasl
structure to using the socket's remote ip address.  When XCLIENT is
used, a new ip address is specified but the sasl structure is not
updated.  The logic appears to be correct with the STARTTLS command, so
I applied similar logic to the XCLIENT command in postfix 2.6.6, since 
that is what we're using currently.

Does this look like the correct way to handle it? It does fix the issue
and dovecot logs the correct XCLIENT-provided address, for both TLS
and plain.

I moved this to the latest 2.11.3 for submission, but this probably 
needs to be fixed, I'm not 100% sure about the got_login logic, so 
I left it alone.
