You can implement this using a sasl canonicalization plugin. Sasl version
2.1.25 (and greater) supports canonicalization with the ldapdb shared
library.  There is a patch in bugzilla to implement support in the sql
shared library.

See: http://www.cyrussasl.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/options.php (search
for 'canon').

The best source of documentation is the cyrus-sasl mailing list archives.
