Note that SASL is a _protocol_ (see rfc2222), not an API. So "SASL has
no account management" has no meaning. You can add account management
to applications using SASL, and PAM is an obvious choice for doing that.
Just call pam_acct_mgmt() after you have authenticated the client with
SASL (and provide a PAM module that performs the accounting actions you
need).
