The statement above is false. *my bad*

I had turned off "SSL" prior to my test send for another test. When I
turned SSL back on in OE6, and put the "server_advertise_condition" back
in for plain_salsauthd and login, everything worked perfectly. OE6 did
a STARTTLS, then EHLO and AUTH LOGIN.

Are there any other AUTH types for which I can use plain system
authentication? I don't want a second source for passwords. Using
"/usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam" I was able to get plain and LOGIN working
- is CRAM-MD5 or SPA (NTLM) possible without a clear text password
available? Any Others?
