Ahh, apparently disable_plaintext_auth was set to 'yes' by default. I
set it to "no" and now it works :-)

Ok, so now I have 1.0 running. That error I had before went away,
but now I have a new error. When I do "USER user@foo.org" over a
telnet to dovecot on my test server I get "-ERR Plaintext
authentication disabled." as a response. This is puzzling because
in dovecot-sql.conf I have "default_pass_scheme = PLAIN" and in
dovecot.conf in the auth default {} section I have "mechanisms =
plain"I wrote the configs from scratch this time, so they are very short;
there they are in their entirety:=== dovecot.conf ===

Shoot, I'm using 0.99.14. I should have known Debian was a version
behind (it always is). I'll compile 1.0 by hand and give it a
shot, I hear the configs go by different rules in 1.0. Thanks for
alerting me about the version.I'll let you know how it goes with 1.0, Patrick

A clue to which version of Dovecot you're using would also be
welcomed...-- Curtis Maloney cmaloney@cardgate.net
