[Dovecot] fast bind patch for ldap passwords

[Geff]

if you'll take it as a patch, I'll do it anyway you'd like. :)  Expect 
it shortly.

Let me make sure I understand you correctly.

conf

auth_bind = yes
auth_bind_userdn = cn=%u....

and then the code would read something like:

if (auth_bind_set && auth_bind_userdn) {
perform fastbind
} else if (auth_bind_set) {
perform auth_bind (seraching model)
}
...

?
