yeah i`ve tried it a month ago with MD5/clear/SHA1/Crypt, for
some *strange* reasons all of these algos are supported by the server auth system
auth_pop/smtp, matching patterns like {MD5}XXX ,{Crypt}XXX and so on. But it doesnt
work for me, any ideas why? I questioned it 1,2 months ago, no replay..
