Good, you were able to read the error message correctly.

Like it says, digest-md5 is not supported as an authentication mechanism
by your IMAP server. You could go through the other choices until you hit
on one that works OR

You might want to check your IMAP server and figure out which
authentication mechanisms are supported.

It would probably help us help you if you gave more detail about your
setup. Especially the IMAP software and version.
