Hi,
yesterday morning I've installed the updated dovecot and since then there was no problem with the client login.
Problem seems gone .

Thank you all for the great support.

Fabio

Fabio,
Okay, it's patched.
The new file is dovecot-2.3.11.3-13 in the testing repo with all the associated packages. We cannot, from here, go on to 2.3.13 because that version no longer supports vpopmail driver.
command will be this:
# yum --enablerepo=qmt-testing update dovecot
I'd wait maybe a day at which time all the qt repos are updated,
or you will find the file on my site at this link: http://repo.whitehorsetc.com/7/testing/x86_64/
from which you can download it and install manually.
Eventually, we will all go this route: https://www.qmailtoaster.org/manydom.html and all dnf (yum) settings can be modified so that all rpms will come from dovecot.

Hi Eric,
I have already searched the dovecot mailing list and found a few people who complain about this error exclusively with dovecot version 2.3.11.3 It seems a bug has been introduced on the behavior of the AUTH mechanism. On the mailing list they recommend patching the sources or upgrading to a later version. That's why I was asking how to upgrade.

Link to the dovecot mailing list.

hmmm...
pretty much the same I have on my toaster.
This is what is confusing:
"-ERR [AUTH] Unsupported authentication method" and " method=USER"
I've seen failures with 'method=digest-md5' or 'method=cram-md5' but never user. Can you ask about this on the Dovecot mailing list and let us know what they say?

So how can I upgrade dovecot?

The dovecot version we (qt) compile has the vpopmail driver in it, the dovecot repos don't have that driver compiled in. If you use the many domain version of qmail toaster that it would be okay, but using the stock version then, no, you would run into trouble using the dovecot repo versions.

Hi,
still having problems, it's safe to update dovecot with this guide or I risk to break something in Toaster setup?

In my /etc/dovecot/toaster.conf I Have:
auth_mechanisms = plain login digest-md5 cram-md5

while the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf is the same as yours  with :
ssl = required

I've found this on the dovecot mailing list : https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2020-August/119760.html

Hi everyone,
I have been having a weird problem connecting pop 3 to my corporate server from Outlook and Thunderbird for about two weeks. When the client tries to connect to the server, I got this error message "-ERR [AUTH] Unsupported authentication method" and in the Dovecot logs I found errors like "pop3-login: Info: Disconnected (tried to use unsupported auth mechanism): user=<x...@xxxxxx.it>, method=USER, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, TLS, session=<bXG42jTVxNtc3/SS>
" .
The strange thing is that the same client checks multiple boxes on the same domain and not all of them give an error, also the error occurs randomly, maybe for half a day it is impossible to download the mail and then suddenly it works for a couple of hours.
Using the imap protocol there are no problems.
When the clients manage to connect I find this in the Dovecot logs "pop3-login: Info: Login: user=<x...@xxxxxx.it>, method=DIGEST-MD5, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, mpid=5510, TLS, session=<+0htGDnVWPdc3/SS>", I don't know why on the same client without changing anything the method switch from USER to DIGEST-MD5
The server is up to date, dovecot version is 2.3.11.3


Any suggestions are welcome
