what exactly are you not understanding here?
this is a very clear message
below a partly output from a working 2.1.7

auth_mechanisms                = CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 APOP LOGIN PLAIN
auth_worker_max_count          = 100
auth_cache_size                = 32768
auth_cache_ttl                 = 1800
auth_cache_negative_ttl        = 1800
auth_username_chars            = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@%
auth_username_translation      = %@AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz
auth_debug                     = no
auth_debug_passwords           = no
auth_verbose                   = no
