Hi everyone,
Our IMAP server here is configured to support only the PLAIN
authentication mechanism, but not LOGIN or CRAM_MD5. Before I
approach our mail admin about opening up another auth mech, is there
another library or add-on to Net::IMAP that supports PLAIN?
Thanks,
Sean
Take a look at <raa.ruby-lang.org/cache/imap-backend/imap-backend.rb>
for a PLAIN authenticator.

Try IMAP#login instead of IMAP#authenticate, this uses a different
authentication method. It works with my Dovecot server although Dovecot
doesn't support LOGIN authentication.

Interesting...I'll give it a try. Not much documentation, though.
When I requre the file and run my script (no other modifications), I get this:
rmail IMAP backend
Starting...
...creating IMAP session service...
...creating watchdog thread...
...starting DRb server...
...started on druby://localhost:31382...
...done.
Until I Ctrl-C and it moves on. After that, I get other IMAP errors I
can likely deal with. How do I stop DRB from running?
Thank you!

Oh, wow, it works. That's amazing.
Does anyone have any thoughts on whether or not this method is better
than using imap-backend? They both work, but I'm afraid of the
overhead and uncertainty of a codebase that's at 0.1 and has no
homepage or documentation.
Thanks!

stick with net::imap. less to install and it's a really lovely
library (I know MTAs that were harder to use than irb and Net::IMAP).
(no offence to imap-backend)
