I have a client connecting to dovecot and comunicating like this:
OK Dovecot ready.
AUTHENTICATE MYAUTH

- NO Invalid base64 data in continued response
The problem is that dovecot seems to reject the response because of the {NNN} in the end of the string. If I remove the {NNN} it authenticates just fine.
Any idea of whether it's standard or not?
What is the {NNN}? I've never seen that before and it's definitely
against RFC 3501:
The client response consists of a single line consisting of a BASE64 encoded string. If the client wishes to cancel an authentication
exchange, it issues a line consisting of a single "*".
