Why should the manpage for imapd.conf not document all of the options that can appear in /etc/imapd.conf? At the very least, it should provide a pointer to a document that does contain the relevant information. And, yes, this is really a problem for upstream, but since I actually got a response from you, do you suppose you could tell me where to find this sasl documentation? I have spent many hours searching for it in Debian packages and on the web in general without any luck. --Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
