[imp] a PATCH to PEAR Mail class to select the auth Method

[Damian Alejandro Fernandez Sosa]

I attach to this email a patch to smtp.php file of the Mail package
to add a parameter (authMethod)  to allow the selection of the auth
method.

Since Net_SMTP 1.1.0 version, the class allows to authenticate with
DIGEST-MD5,CRAM-MD5, LOGIN and PLAIN methods by choosing  the best auth
method available first  but you can overide this selection by passing a
3rd parameter to the auth() method.

This patch do this by adding a authMethod param to the constructor's
params array.


So now with this patch you can create a smtp object and selecting the
CRAM-MD5 auth method doing:




require_once 'Mail.php';

$params['host']="localhost";
$params['port']=25;
$params['auth']=true;
$params['username']="foo";
$params['password']="bar";
$params['authMethod']="CRAM-MD5";

$mailer = &Mail::factory("smtp", $params);



If you agree with this patch please commit to allow to use this feature.

Thanks!
