POP3 + DISABLE_CRYPTO_AUTH
Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2013 12:39:14 +0400
Hi all,
I use libcurl v7.28.1 built with DISABLE_CRYPTO_AUTH flag to get mail via
pop3. I've recently come across the problem that libcurl can not get
messages from particular server.
After receiveing server's response:
CAPA^M
+OK Capability list follows
TOP
USER
UIDL
APOP
STARTTLS
STLS
EXT-RETR
QSTAT
CHECKVERS
SASL CRAM-MD5
curl fails with 'No known SASL authentication mechanisms supported!'
message and gives up.
I think the better behavioiur in such a cituation is to keep trying to
authenticate using the next method in order of priority.
As far as talk is cheap, see attachment.
