Your main problem is that you're trying to use digest-md5 or cram-md5
with DES crypted (?) passwords. This won't work. Either you'll need the
password to be in DIGEST-MD5 crypted format (in which case CRAM-MD5
won't work), HMAC-MD5 crypted (in which case DIGEST-MD5 won't work) or
in plaintext (which has its own problems of course).

Whatever of those you use you'll have to prefix the password field with
{scheme}, like {DIGEST-MD5}123456.

The crash is a bug anyway, I'll fix it for next version.
