sasl_authorize_t   is   used  to  check  whether the authorized user auth_identity may act  as  the  user
       requested_user.  For  example  the  user root may wish to authenticate with his credentials  but  act  as
       the  user  mmercer  (with   all   of  mmercer’s   rights  not roots). A server application should be very
       careful, and probably err on the side of  caution, when determining which users may proxy as whom.
