I am finishing up getting SSL/IMAP working on our mail server and I notice the Use secure authentication box....very little I can find out about it, except that everyone says NOT to use it and maybe it's only for POP, not IMAP. Can you confirm?...googled you on this.
It probably means CRAM-MD5 authentication. See authentication mechanisms in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication
Also, isn't authentication secure with SSL/IMAP anyway?????
Yep. It's more or less useless with SSL.
