documentation lookup for SMTP AUTH with (from_email, login, pass)

Hello,

I woul like to use SMTP AUTH but not only with (login, pass) AUTH key
but with (from_email, login, pass).

Would you know any documentation on that?

The from_email address (whatever that is) isn't available at SMTP AUTH time,
so you'll have to:

* include the from_email in the login credentials (e.g.
login=bob[at]example.com)
and/or
* have the AUTH use login+pass and then add an ACL which validates that
from_email is allowed for this authenticated_id.

I suspect the list archives include examples of both.

Regards,
