Bug ID: 314945
Summary: No option to choose PREAUTH authentication for IMAP
Classification: Unclassified
Product: kmail2
Version: 4.9.5
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
URL: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52572
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
As described at the URL, there's no option to specify PREAUTH authentication
for IMAP (or at least I couldn't find it), which in particular makes it
impossible for to use kmail with SSH public key authentication (where the IMAP
session is authenticated and opened in advance).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Say dovecot.server.org is your IMAP server that supports SSH public key
authentication.
2. 'ssh dovecot.server.org "exec /usr/lib/dovecot/imap"' opens an IMAP session
on that server.
3. There's no option for kmail to do 2 and use that session going forward.
Actual Results:
As described in "Steps to Reproduce".
Expected Results:
kmail should be able to use SSH for key-based authentication and session setup.
