I am trying to use authenticate plain with a Kerio imap server and not having much luck. The idea is to use the admin name and password in order to log in to a user account and access the user's folders. This appears to work but in fact I get access to the admin folders, not the user's. Basically I am constructing a buffer that looks like: <useraccount>0<adminaccount>0<adminpassword> (the 0 being a binary byte=x00.) I base64 encode this, issue "authenticate plain" wait for the prompt, then send the encoded data. Server responds authentication successful, however I am logged into the admin account, not the user. I have used this code successfully with other imap servers that support auth plain, so I know it works. Is there something screwy about Kerio? _______________________________________________ Imap-protocol mailing list [email protected] http://mailman2.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/imap-protocol
