Which client is trying to use CRAM-MD5 even though its not advertised?

You can either complain to the client vendor, see if you can configure 
it to not unilaterally try CRAM, change syslog.conf to not log 
auth.notice messages, or tweak the SASL source to not log this stuff.

If it were me, I'd scream at the client author and see if I can tweak 
the client config in the mean time.
