I'm sorry, but this statement parses as nonsense.  You have saslauthd 
running but it isn't used, and you have auxprop listed even though you 
don't have an auxprop.  How exactly are you being authenticated?

And have you tried reading the logs?  There is nothing mystical here -- 
everything is logged, including how your login and realm are parsed for 
authentication.
