I'm using saslauthd, but saslauthd -a shows the below options,
uthentication mechanisms: getpwent pam rimap shadow ldap

I'm assuming I don't want shadow, I haven't installed pam or openldap so
pam/ldap is out. I tried getpwent, rimap and both did not work. Is sasldb
the recommended and default backend authentication dbase? I can't find it
or know how to access to use authentication. (I tried all mechanisms and
none worked.)
