Incoming Mail (IMAP) - "Plaintext authentication disabled" Issue

Mon, 2010-08-02 08:27 — oranges2apples

This service appears to use Plaintext authentication only. Is there a way to change this to MD5? Feature request?

Right now, my mail server won't accept plaintext logins and therefore I can't use this test to confirm if our mail server is running. :(

Thank you.

See the "Incoming Mail (POP) via SSL" service on the Simon Extras page. That is for POP, but could probably be modified for IMAP.

Gave that a shot and it didn't work either. Used port 143. I also tried typing the command into terminal and seeing the results. Was getting an error. I don't have ssl enabled on our mail server. It's just MD5 encryption.

If you can find a way to check it via Terminal, you could use that in Simon. Maybe a simple telnet session would work, though maybe not if there's encryption.
