Hi all, So, now I have my little Cyrus IMAP server running and I've created a user and tested successfully using imtest. I decided to try to test the IMAP server by using telnet. cyrus@linux-zuge:~> telnet localhost imap Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ ID LOGINDISABLED * AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 SASL-IR COMPRESS=DEFLATE] linux-zuge * Cyrus IMAP v2.3.16 server ready . login ahkow@test.com pass1234 . NO Login only available under a layer . logout * BYE LOGOUT received . OK Completed Connection closed by foreign host. The password is correct because I used it with imtest, but I could also specify that I was using DIGEST-MD5 in imtest. Do I need to make a MD5 hash of my password and enter it when I login with telnet? If so, how do I generate the MD5 hash of "pass1234"? Also, if Cyrus requires the MD5 hashed password to login, does that mean that clients such as Outlook would not be able to connect because they can only use plain text authentication (AFAIK)? Any information would be deeply appreciated! pascal chong -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
