The fastest route to me seems to be:
imap -> pam_ldap -> ldap sever
Can we PLEASE produce a version of cyrus-imap imap WITHOUT SASL? PAM may
be a smidgeon less flexible, but it is simplier, more widely used and
supports many more authentication methods. Eliminating SASL might make
life harder for the (guestimated) 10% of cyrus-imap sites that really
use it, but it would make life immeasurably easier for the remaining 90%
who spend countless hours just trying to circumvent it!
Seriously, can someone who knows the code comment on how difficult it
would be to replace SASL with another mechanism?
