Cyrus::IMAP PERL scripting problem

[Dave O]

This should allow you to log in using plaintext, assuming (I think) PLAIN
is listed as a mechanism in your imapd.conf

      $cyrus = Cyrus::IMAP::Admin->new($imap_server);
      $cyrus->authenticate(-mechanism => 'login', -user => $imap_user,
         -password => $imap_pass);
