Thanks for trying. The developer who did the SASL stuff isn't active anymore. I have not seen a single person who got it to work yet, and I haven't tried setting it up myself. I made the PLAIN/LOGIN change you quoted above, knowing that this is required for interaction with saslauthd. I was hoping that this change would allow someone out there to get a working configuration figured out and share it. Maybe that someone is you? :) Stefan
