Howdy Cyrus,

Funny. I saw that in the IMSP server sources and didn't even twig that it was "imap" instead of "imsp", otherwise I would have modified the server sources.

Wouldn't it be better if this were filed as a bug with CMU and get the service name changed in the server sources? That, to me, would seem to be the better way to handle this going forward, since imap and imsp are two different services.

Thanks for the help!
Will

OK - I think I see the problem. The DIGEST mechanism requires a 'service
name' parameter. For IMAP that is 'imap'. We have been using 'imsp' for
IMSP, however CMU uses 'imap' as the service name for IMSP. GSSAPI also
uses a service name and there we do use 'imap' for IMSP. I need to change
our digest plugin to use 'imap' then it should work. I will work on
fixing that for our next update.
