I tracked further down the problem and the result is as follows.

When using DIGEST-MD5, the auxprop gets invoked and the following fields 
are requested:

userPassword
cmusaslsecretDIGEST-MD5


When using CRAM-MD5, the requests are:

userPassword
cmusaslsecretCRAM-MD5


In the LOGIN case, the fields are

userPassword
cmusaslsecretPLAIN


OK.

When using PLAIN,


NO FIELDS are requested, the list of attributes to be fetched from the 
data source is

NULL.


So the question remains, what was changed in the algorithm of the plain 
plugin?
