True. But if you're using verified SSL during mail submission (which you
should be), CRAM-MD5 doesn't give you anything useful. In fact it makes
matters worse by requiring the server to know the plain text password,
instead of just being able to store a hash of it. I can't imagine a
situation where I would ever use CRAM-MD5.
