I think the actual security features list is dependant on the SASL implementation, and which mechs satisfy each security feature is defined in cyrus and dovecot sasl. I'm not certain but I think taht postfix simply passes the list of security options you specify directly to the SASL implementation and it selects the mechs based on that. The short answer is, ask cyrus or dovecot. Peter
