I have enabled SSL support for my dovecot installation but if I enable secure authentication in my MUA, I get an error from dovecot telling me that this is not supported..
Is this because dovecot does not support this or am I missing some config?
Might be. But note that with "secure authentication" it might mean CRAM-MD5, DIGEST-MD5, Kerberos a.s.o. that are no simple plain text or just Base64 coding mechanisms. SSL on the other hand is a way to make a secure *connection*. So make sure some of the above mechanisms are enabled in your dovecot installation as well.

So, if we are talking about authentication, I always get the error:

Do i need to store the password in mysql with md5? I don't fully understand it... Why do i get that error?
Now my "default_pass_scheme = CRYPT", and in mysql I'm using ENCRYPT when i store a password.
I am using thunderbird 2, and my authentication mechanism:
auth default { mechanisms = plain login cram-md5
passdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot-sql.conf
}
userdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot-userdb-sql.conf
}
socket listen {
client {
user = postfix
group = postfix
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
mode = 0660
}
}}
