Hi Sam,IIRC, I think this means that you need to have an encrypted connection to the mail server to use the PLAIN auth mechanism. However, I can't find anything in my config files that would affect this and I'm using unencrypted imap connections so I'm guessing. Perhaps someone else can comment.Dave ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
