Do you mean something like
http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/AllowNets (and
http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields)?

dovecot-auth doesn't really support such plugins. You could let the user
log in normally and then check the IP and disconnect if it's wrong
(http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting) but that of course tells
the user that the user/pass was correct and the IP was just wrong.
