Thanks for trying.
The developer who did the SASL stuff isn't active anymore.
I have not seen a single person who got it to work yet, and I haven't
tried setting it up myself. I made the PLAIN/LOGIN change you quoted
above, knowing that this is required for interaction with saslauthd.
I was hoping that this change would allow someone out there to
get a working configuration figured out and share it.
Maybe that someone is you? :)
