Hiya,

I think that is the right thread... Dan's email was:

http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2011-08/0320.html

From scanning the emails I think we were talking about generic modifications that we could make and code that could be shared between other SASL based protocols (IMAP and POP3 for example) ;-)

Cool...

1) No problem
2) Sure
3) I run Mail Enable (Free Edition) and Microsoft Exchange Server myself but I honestly don't know if either of these support DIGEST-MD5 and unfortunately
4) I got a little confused here - Do you mean that you need assistance in generating the patch file etc for inclusion in the next build?

It is also worth noting that we are in a feature freeze period until v7.24.0 is released so only very minor changes and bug fixes are being pushed at the moment.

Kind Regards

Steve
