Hi Everyone:
        I am using cyrus-sasl on postfix and courier-imap now. But i need 
change to 
other authentication method. This is in this way because cyrus-sasl have a 
security bug, and seem not be corrected in the closer future.

If the right username is "m...@example.com" and pass "helloworld", i try the 
next
with a surprissing result:
sxxxb:~ # testsaslauthd -u m...@example.com -p helloworld
0: OK "Success."
sxxxb:~ # testsaslauthd -u m...@example.com -p helloworld1
0: OK "Success."
sxxxb:~ # testsaslauthd -u m...@example.com -p helloworld111111
0: OK "Success."

YES, saslauth is granting acces to bad password.

More detail in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3897

After i was attacked with a dictionary attack, i think that is better switch 
to antoher authentication method. So the right question is: There are another 
method that allow the basic:
Postfix sasl
courier-imap

Best Regards
Christian
