Hi,

I just configured Mozilla mail client use Secure authentication login to 
Cyrus pop3/imap.
When I configure MS Outlook 2002, I found it is difficult to configure 
for the same authenticaiton.
The Cyrus Imapd is version 2.2 with the following setup in the 
imapd.conf file:
sasl_mech_list: plain login cram-md5 digest-md5

In Outlook 2002, I have the check-box (Logon using Secure Password 
Authentication) checked, but logon keep failing.

May be because cyrus use cram-md5 for authentication but MS Outlook 2002 does not support it.

Is there any solution for SPA support in MS Outlook 2002 to authenticate with cyrus using CRAM-MD5?

Thanks
sam
