Tran Hong Quan commented on JAMES-4211:
---------------------------------------

> Where does this piece of code will live?

For now:

  - {*}protocols/api{*}: generic SASL SPI only, plus very small 
protocol-neutral support types.
  - {*}protocols/imap{*}: IMAP bridge/adaptation code, because IMAP owns 
SASL-IR decoding, continuation formatting, abort handling, and 
AuthenticateProcessor integration.
  - {*}protocols/smtp{*}: SMTP bridge/adaptation code, because SMTP owns AUTH 
command behavior and SMTP response formatting.

Maybe we can think about introducing a new *protocols/sasl* module if needed, 
depending on how the POC goes?
