Thanks for the error message. Given how imapd/auth_gsasl.c look:
if (gsasl_cram_md5_pwd && access (gsasl_cram_md5_pwd, R_OK) == 0)
{
gsasl_server_callback_retrieve_set (ctx, cb_retrieve);
}
I'd say you didn't specify a CRAM-MD5 password file, or it was not
readable. Do you have a $(sysconfdir)/cram-md5.pwd? Typically
/etc/cram-md5.pwd or /usr/local/etc/cram-md5.pwd.
The IMAP server should be able to implement a callback for PLAIN that
uses PAM or /etc/passwd directly, for password authentication, though,
but this appear to be missing right now. It is impossible to use PAM
or /etc/passwd for CRAM-MD5/DIGEST-MD5 though, and for those systems
you must create a user/password database and store it in
$(sysconfdir)/cram-md5.pwd.
I only read the source very briefly, sorry if I missed something.
Regards,
Simon
