    That is very interesting. I found that I had to enable MD5 because
    the backends (and mupdate?) would not accept lower-strength
    authentication. PLAIN would be preferable for several reasons.

    That is commented out at the moment, to allow MD5. I started with
    PLAIN and LOGIN only.

    Yes

    I would like to support PLAIN, LOGIN, and DIGEST-MD5, but the latter
    requires a plaintext password database so it will probably be judged
    too risky.

    Thanks
