IMSP and Digest-MD5

[William K. Hardeman]

Howdy Cyrus,

Thanks for the reply.

I do have DIGEST-MD5 working with IMAP. Actually, in the 3 years I've been 
using both Cyrus IMAP and Cyrus IMSP, I've always been able to use 
DIGEST-MD5 on the IMAP connections and never on the IMSP connections.

IMAP connection with DIGEST-MD5 from the logs:
Feb 17 10:49:26 mail imap[17487]: login: dilbert.wkh.org [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] 
wont-i at wkh.org DIGEST-MD5 User logged in


The error I'm seeing in messages when I try using DIGEST-MD5 is:

Feb 17 10:44:21 mail imsp[17643]: bad digest-uri: doesn't match service
Feb 17 10:44:21 mail imsp[17643]: badlogin: dilbert.wkh.org - digest-md5 
authentication failure

I'm glad to hear that there is TLS code out there. I'm looking forward to 
being able to use it.

Thanks for the help,
Will
