Carlos,
Could you add a stanza to /lib/imapoptions describing any configuration
options you've added? Don't worry if it's perfect, just get something
in there so we documentation folk can make sure they get into the man pages.
Thanks!

Also in the patch is some code for Serverinfo switch in timsieved to not disclose name
and/or version info in "IMPLEMENTATION" if Serverinfo is Off or Min.

Subject: Patch: forcing SSL before auth

Hi,
Right now, "allowplaintext" option disallow using a plain authentication if
session is not protected by TLS.
However, this setting still allows a client to make MD5 or SHA1 auth without
session being protected by TLS. This can lead to not data confidentiality when
using not plain auth.
There are several admins now requesting to force TLS for all sessions, and although this
can be done using "allowplaintext" and removing all mechs but Plain, it would
be right to be able to provide another layer of security and use TLS+SHA1 or so...
Attached is a patch with a new imapd.conf option:
forcetlsauth: 0 | 1. Default 0
If enabled all authentications require a TLS session negotiated before.
Patch also "hides" AUTH and other authentication commands that are not allowed
before TLS, in Capabilites commands.
Patched in imapd, pop3d, nntpd, httpd.
This patch does not break cyradm functionality at all, however I attach another patch for
the cyradm perl part to allow "--cafile" option (got tired of certificate
validation warnings) and also fixed a minor bug when requesting capabilities to server
without the callback.
Please, consider committing this to mainstream.
Regards,
Carlos Velasco
