Well, I can confirm that forcing to CRAM-MD5 works. However, the only way
I could do it was to delete
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Authen/SASL/Perl/DIGEST-MD5.pm file.
It seems, DIGEST-MD5 is the more secure one (is it?), so that's the reason
why it is
preferred. I hope so. However, either SASL/Perl or the smtp server has
wrong implementation, probably.
I guess, it is the server...

Jan
