hi all,

i've newly built/installed:

       exim-4.43
       cyrus-imap-2.28
       cyrus-sasl-2.1.19

on OSX 10.3.5

plus, i've been moving to MySQL support for vitrual domanis using VExim ...

so, at this point, exim seems to run fine, responding to send-tests, etc. as expected.

when testing cyrus-imap w/ TLS, however, i'm having some issues.  specifically, when i:

       % /usr/local/cyrus-imap/bin/imtest -t "" -m plain -a testuser -p imap 
testdomain.com

it fails with an "Authentication failed. no mechanism available":

       S: * OK testserver.testdomain.com Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.8 server ready
       C: C01 CAPABILITY
       S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE

AUTH=PLAIN SASL-IR LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED
       S: C01 OK Completed
       Authentication failed. no mechanism available
       Security strength factor: 256

now, i'll bet i've misconfigured something ... but durned if i can find it (yet).  i'm 
crusing the list, as well, but am not yet familiar enuf with what to even look for.

fwiw, my imapd.conf is:

       admins: testuser
       postmaster: postmaster

       virtdomains: yes

       defaultdomain: testdomain.com
       servername: testserver.testdomain.com

       configdirectory: /etc/cyrus-imap/
       partition-default: /var/spool/imap
       sievedir: /var/sieve
       sieve_maxscriptsize: 32
       sieve_maxscripts: 5

       autocreatequota: 10000
       reject8bit: no
       quotawarn: 90
       timeout: 30
       poptimeout: 10
       dracinterval: 0
       drachost: localhost
       sendmail: /usr/local/exim/bin/exim

       allowanonymouslogin: no
       allowplaintext: yes
       sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
       sasl_mech_list: PLAIN

any/all pointers/suggestions are much appreciated,

richard
