Hi, thanks for the responses to all. But there is a problem still. I've patched the cyrus-sasl-2.1.19 Version compiled and installed. So if I set the parameter sasl_password_format: plaintext all is running. Is the sasl_password_format: crypt set, then i can't authenticate against my MySQL Database. The Database is a mysql version 4.0.21. I use phpMyAdmin too. If I create a user in the database which function i have to use for the password encryption. Is it MD5 or PASSWORD? Both won't work.
Thanks a lot >> i want use this crypt password to login in cyrus imap with mozilla >> thunderbird or squirrelmail.... So in the mysql DB the password is >> crypt. >> So, what i have to do?
