[imp] Setting up SMTP Auth Connection/Using ofmipd with IMP

[Damian Alejandro Fernandez Sosa]

Please Upgrade the Pear packages Net_SMTP, Auth_SASL and Mail
to the latest versions and check it again

The New Net_SMTP package has support to the following methods:
LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5

I think you can have an old version of Net_SMTP that only have AUTH
LOGIN METHOD SUPPORT. What auth method has enabled the ofmipd Qmail
daemon?
