      Delegated authentication is currently not supported in the SASL API.
      The SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) API is a framework
      in Java SE that facilitates authentication. It supports SASL plug-in's
      (or mechanisms) that conduct protocol-specific authentication. This
      omission limits the ability of proxy-style servers to authenticate and
      perform operations on behalf of their clients.
