Test SASL authentication via telnet (or similar)

[Alessio Cecchi]

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to autenticate my email users via Dovecot SASL TCP 
connections from an external nodejs or python script.

Dovecot configuration is fine, if I set in postfix smtpd_sasl_path = 
inet:127.0.0.1:12345 works fine.

But if a try via "telnet 127.0.0.1 12345" to chat with SASL in dovecot 
log found:

dovecot: auth: Error: Authentication client not compatible with this 
server (mixed old and new binaries?)

What is the right way to chat with SASL via TCP port?

Thanks
