Using kmail with PLAIN authentication worked fine with beta3 but trying it
with beta4 authentication fails.
This is because kmail sends "username \0 username \0 password" in the
authorization token and the new code to call
auth_request_set_login_username() when supplied an authid must be returning
failure (certainly commenting this code out returns to the beta3 behaviour of
successfully authenticating). I had a quick look at the routine to see why
it might be failing but didn't really work out what its supposed to do.
