It's said so. However, here is what I discovered. Even I didn't enable login when I compile SASL library, I still could use --auth login for cyradm. Furthermore, it returns different result when I use --auth plain versus --auth login. Here is what I got.
cyradm --user cyrus --auth plain localhost Password: IMAP Password: localhost> cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost IMAP Password: localhost> Both approaches work, but plain asks me the same password for one more time. I don't know the reason either.

Is it the same in the end?
