This patch makes it also print what value was sent:

It most likely means that KMail is broken, or possibly also a bug in
Dovecot. In any case what it means is that Dovecot announces that it
supports "auth" QoP (Quality of Protection). KMail is supposed to reply
back that it wants to use "auth" QoP, but it replies with something
else.

Maybe what happened is that KMail developers added support for other
QoPs also but forgot to add a check to see if the server supported them.
