Software layering means that Postfix is completely agnostic on this
question. The username and password are passed to the SASL library,
the rest is up to SASL.
Thus this is a SASL/LDAP question more than Postfix/SASL question.
The SASL configuration for this would be the same as with any other
SASL client (that is not necessarily Postfix). If the SASL LDAP
driver is able to and configured to support password hashes, then
Postfix will do that.
As Wietse said, we'll gladly update the documentation, but I don't
have an environment in which I can test this, so someone will have
to test and write-up a suitable configuration if this is supported.
