# dovecot --version 2.2.31 (65cde28) on freebsd 64 10.3
system converted to dovecot 2 against my will and consuming a lot of time sorting it out. i am glad google does not charge. have spent two hours on this one alone; and undoubtedly it is my st00pidity. so excuse my desperate posting to lazynet.
cram-md5 works, pam not so much
