Oguz, Can you provide a complete capabilities output that the remote server is providing (The initial greeting you see when you telnet to port 143)? The 'unexpected response to auth request' seems to occur after saslauthd has believed that it has received the initial greeting, has sent the 'login user pass', and is expecting to receive an OK/NO. If saslauthd and the imap server happen to be on the same host (and you don't otherwise need to use saslauthd), you could use 'pwcheck_method: authdaemond', instead. If you do, you'll need to also provide an authdaemond_path parameter. -- Dan White
