Anton Blajev asked about an alternative to security/cyrus-sasl. I like Dovecot very much so I wanted to mention it. rafan already mentioned cyrus-sasl2 so I didn't have to talk about it anymore. Dovecot SASL is easier to configure than Cyrus SASL IMO and I know that Dovecot developers focus very much on security whereas for Cyrus developers I don't know. However if you prefer Cyrus I don't think there is anything wrong with it. Regards, Jona
