hi
i have a strange problem with my dovecot installtion: i configured it to accept digest-md5 authentication only but for some reason mailclients (i tried mutt and thunderbird so far) want to log with PLAIN (which fails of course).
Thunderbird doesn't support DIGEST-MD5 as far as I know, but mutt has always used DIGEST-MD5 with me automatically. In any case there isn't anything on Dovecot's side you can do about this. Although you could verify that:
openssl s_client -connect imap.domain.org:22993 x capability
There should be no AUTH=PLAIN in the capability list, and there should also be LOGINDISABLED capability.
