ok. forgive me if i'm wrong becuase i don't know all the specifics
concerning login challenges.

I do know for a fact, that my isp using AUTH=LOGIN also supports plain
text.

Isn't there a 'plain text' password challenge for evolution? ...or 'is'
this "PLAIN" and i could try hacking the code so that "AUTH=LOGIN" will be
equivelent to "AUTH=PLAIN".  ...anyways...just a thought & a shot in the
dark.
