RFC 4954 states

 Note: A server implementation MUST implement a configuration in which
   it does NOT permit any plaintext password mechanisms, unless either
   the STARTTLS [SMTP-TLS] command has been negotiated or some other
   mechanism that protects the session from password snooping has been
   provided.  Server sites SHOULD NOT use any configuration which
   permits a plaintext password mechanism without such a protection
   mechanism against password snooping.

So I'm -1 on this patch, and also on the feature until STARTTLS is implemented (and then this patch needs to be updated to conform to this requirement).
