We use nginx similarly.  We have a custom authentication daemon
which can talk saslauthd protocol to Cyrus or HTTP protocol to 
nginx (since that's what it prefers).  One nice thing about our
setup is that we can provide an informative message to our users
about why the connection is being refused (basically "pay us more
money and we'll give you POP" ;)
