For those admins who, for whatever ill-advised reason, need to allow users access to external IMAP servers - like AOL - is there a benefit to using Dovecot as a proxy instead of simply having the clients access the external servers directly?

After logging in Dovecot's proxy does nothing but forward the traffic. So I don't see any benefits.
