 But the proxy removes the '*master' suffix from the username when using
 the master user to log in on the proxy. So the base name of the user
 with the master password are submitted to the real server, which of
 course fails.
 
 Is there a way to tell the proxy to forward the master user to the real
 server, without forcing it in destuser, since we also need to have
 regular (non master) logins?

I implemented it now for v1.2:
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/50f49805b13b

v1.1 should be in bugfixes-only mode and that's a pretty big change, so
probably won't go there..

[Dovecot] proxy and master user
