Package: icedove Version: 3.0.6-1 Severity: normal Somehow I cannot get Icedove to play nice with my Kerberos/Dovecot setup. Mutt works fine, but with icedove, I get "... you have enabled secure authentication and this server does not support it". But the Dovecot logs show that it is not even trying:
Aug 28 18:45:23 gnome dovecot: auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=22689) Aug 28 18:45:27 gnome dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=172.22.21.58, lip=172.22.21.5, mpid=0, TLS With mutt on the other hand, I get this: Aug 28 18:46:59 gnome dovecot: auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=22691) [...] Aug 28 18:47:01 gnome dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<xxx>, method=GSSAPI, rip=172.22.21.58, lip=172.22.21.5, mpid=22696, TLS This is firstly a request for documentation, because so far I have not found a single official document stating that Thunderbird/Icedove supports Kerberos authentication. All information about it seems to come from third-party sources (well, MozillaZine is somewhat official) and all indicate the same "check Enable Secure Authentication and it works!". If only... At this point I'm wondering whether Kerberos is even supported, or that only SSPI-style (AD) authentication is available. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (900, 'stable'), (300, 'squeeze'), (300, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.34.6 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages icedove depends on: ii debianutils 3.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libasound2 1.0.23-1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.4-8 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libjpeg62 6b1-1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libnspr4-0d 4.8.4-2 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libnss3-1d 3.12.6-3 Network Security Service libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsqlite3-0 3.7.0-1.1 SQLite 3 shared library ii libstartup-notification 0.10-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libstdc++6 4.4.4-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-3 X11 client-side library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 1:1.0.7-1 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii psmisc 22.11-1 utilities that use the proc file s ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages icedove recommends: ii myspell-de-de [myspell-dict 20091006-4.1 German dictionary for myspell ii myspell-en-au [myspell-dict 2.1-5 English_australian dictionary for ii myspell-en-gb [myspell-dict 1:3.2.1-2 English_british dictionary for mys ii myspell-nl [myspell-diction 1:1.10-5 Dutch dictionary for MySpell and H Versions of packages icedove suggests: ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgconf2-4 2.28.1-3 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgnome2-0 2.30.0-1 The GNOME library - runtime files ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.24.3-1 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg~beta1-1 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii ttf-lyx 1.6.7-1 TrueType versions of some TeX font -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
