Check out RFC 2831, section 2.3: (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2831.txt?number=2831)
(This is the digest-md5 sasl mechanism rfc)
2.4 Confidentiality Protection
If the server sent a "cipher-opts" directive and the client responded
with a "cipher" directive, then subsequent messages between the
client and the server MUST be confidentiality protected.
Section 2.3 is about integrity protection.
