[imp] Courier IMAP and IMAP authentication

[Dennis Ortsen]

Hi All,

I'm having problems with authenticating using Courier IMAP. When I enter the
username and password, it takes longer than expected, and I see the
following lines appear in my browser:

Notice: (null)(): Retrying CRAM-MD5 authentication after Login failed.
(errflg=1) in Unknown on line 0

Notice: (null)(): Retrying CRAM-MD5 authentication after Login failed.
(errflg=1) in Unknown on line 0

Notice: (null)(): Can not authenticate to IMAP server: Login failed.
(errflg=2) in Unknown on line 0

It appears that Courier IMAP doesn't have CRAM-MD5 authentication enabled by
default, since it seems to be quite difficult to get that working properly
with Courier IMAP. Is there a place somewhere in IMP or in Horde file where
I can disable CRAM-MD5 authentication?

I'm not going to run this in the future, I'm going to use mysql
authentication later on, but I kinda hope that disabling this somewhere will
get me to where I want faster.

I'm using FreeBSD 4.7
PHP 4.3.1
Horde 3 CVS
IMP 4 CVS
Apache 2.0.44

Or can it be that I've got some other problem?

Any help much appreciated...

Thanks,

Wkr,
