[Dovecot] Help needed with debugging auth command

Hi guys,

OK, so I am trying to find out why the POP3 AUTH / IMAP AUTHORIZE 
command is not doing what it is supposed to (not sure if it just for me 
or what).  I am getting as far as:

sasl-server.c - line 123 - mech = auth_client_find_mech(auth_client, 
mech_name);

auth_client_find_mech is in auth-client.c which is where I am getting lost.

My guess is we are not returning back to sasl-server.c since we don't 
get an SASL auth or an 'Unsupported' error.
If I try 'PLAIN' as the auth method as the parameter then it tries to 
login with no user or pass and fails.  If I try anything else (I have 
configed to accept plain only) I get 'Authorization failed' and it 
doesn't even try to lookup the user/pass.

Regards
Andrew
