Does anyone on this list have a safe way of providing kerberos
authentication?

I've thought of a couple of things:

- storing passwords plain

Obviously not a solution one would strive for, but there may be safe ways
to do this - retreiving password through an encrypted channel, forced
commands, etc etc

- symmetric encryption, using private key owned by imap server /
  user

Well, the obvious problem here is that the key can get compromized.
