User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030321 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030321 I've heard that recent versions of Mozilla's IMAP client can handle CRAM-MD5 authenticatiog. Grepping through the source I find mention of CRAM-MD5 in the IMAP-related code, but it appears to not be working. If I login to my IMAP server with Mozilla, it still uses the LOGIN or PLAIN methods, even if I disable all mechs except CRAM-MD5. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login to IMAP server offering CRAM-MD5 authentication. 2. Client attempts LOGIN (or PLAIN) authentication instead of CRAM-MD5. 3. Actual Results: If I use PLAIN or LOGIN, I can login. Otherwise, authentication fails. Expected Results: Noticed that the IMAP server said this: * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA AUTH=CRAM-MD5 IDLE and used CRAM-MD5. I'd also _love_ to see DIGEST-MD5 implemented.

I don't believe CRAM-MD5 has ever been turned on, despite what you've heard. If you looked a little more closely at the code, you'd see that the cram-md5 stuff is #if 0'd out - I don't know why, since I didn't put in the #if 0 code.
Looks like it might work as well after uncommenting those lines, but we seem to be missing "nsIHashAlgorithm.h" It would be fantastic if we could get this functional.
