Re: Kerberos 1.4.3 and qpopper

Okay, this is a bit late of an answer, but I've been busy.

Are you sure you _need_ those patches?

That is to support the older "KPOP/sendauth" style authentication.
Newer versions of qpopper support GSSAPI via SASL (using the Cyrus-SASL
library), which really means Kerberos when you get down to it ... but
the protocol is a lot more reasonable, and more mail readers support
SASL/GSSAPI.  I think we retired our KPOP support over a year ago as
everyone had a mail client that could do GSSAPI.  The only big user of
KPOP was Eudora, but that can now do GSSAPI as well.
