Hi good people--
I'm having trouble finding documentation about using GSSAPI in GNU
mailutils.
in particular, the mailutils documentation says that the imap4d server
supports GSSAPI [0], but it doesn't mention whether mail (the MUA)
supports it as well. It would be great if it did!
i have a functioning KRB5 domain with a GSSAPI-enabled (via SASL) IMAP
server (cyrus). Other GSSAPI-capable MUAs (e.g. mutt) are capable of
using a krb5 credentials cache to connect properly to their mailbox
without additional authentication. i'd like to set up /usr/bin/mail
to do this as well, if that's possible.
Can someone explain to me how i can coax /usr/bin/mail to select the
GSSAPI SASL authenticator instead of PLAIN or LOGIN? A pointer to the
proper documentation would be great!
Thanks,
--dkg
