Hello all,

supports qpopper the "Auth Plain" command with
PAM together?

We have a special program, which needs the command...

In the documentation I found that only RFC  1939 and 2449
is supported.

The AUTH command is described in RFC 1734 as "optional"...

We use PAM, that's works fine. But in that case "AUTH"
returns the following message:

----- snip ----
ahe@se6:~/src> telnet post 110
Trying XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX...
Connected to post.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK ready  <16263.1228829430@post>
AUTH
+OK Supported SASL mechanisms:
X-NONE-SO-USE-APOP-OR-STLS
.

"Plain" is not in the list and the switch "-p2" don't take any effect;()


Any hints?


Best regards

Andre
