pop3d using wrong auth mechanism

[Ketema Harris]

I don't think it was built with it.  my USE flags are: dev-libs/cyrus- 
sasl-2.1.22-r1  USE="berkdb crypt java pam postgres ssl -authdaemond - 
gdbm -kerberos -ldap -mysql -ntlm_unsupported_patch -sample -srp - 
urandom" which is the same as --without-mysql.  smtpd works fine  
using the below config file:

pwcheck_method:auxprop
mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5
auxprop_plugin: sasldb

So what's up with imapd?  Should I remove the sasl from in front of  
pwcheck_method?

Thanks,
