Are there any plans to add the capability of sending the passwords via a
procedure call for DIGEST-MD5, CRAM-MD5, authentication?
After looking at the imclient API, I dont' see how it can easily be done
since that API relies more on prompts to the user to collect the secrets.
The Isieve API is'nt too bad except it would be nice to be able to force the
mechanism to use for authentication instead of letting the system decide.
(not that this is bad.. just like more control for certain applications).
I suppose if there was a way to capture the prompts from the
sasl_authentication layer and pass the secrets there, it might be fine but I
don't know of any way to do that within perl..
For now I'll stick to using LOGIN for authentication with the Cyrus::Imap
API.
