Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc3.3.1 OS: Linux This bug is not exactly in kmail but somewhere in kio. How I know? I degraded to 5.09 CVS-HEAD when everything worked and upgraded kdelibs to today (16.09) CVS, still works, upgrade of kdebase and crash. Now the meat: Trying to send mails with poczta.wp.pl (smtp.wp.pl) server (auth method PLAIN). I am getting message: Błąd autoryzacji, uwierzytelnianie [MM: authorization error, authentication ] An error occured during authentication: SASL(-4): no mechanism available: No worthy mechs found jest nieobsługiwane [does not work] This is crucial thing. Downloading works OK. SASL is coming from packages of Mdk9.2: libsasl2-2.1.15-4mdk cyrus-sasl-2.1.15-9mdk libsasl2-devel-2.1.15-9mdk
Could you check if you have cyrus-sasl installed and if the kdebase configure has detected it? If not could you install that and rebuild kdebase and try again? Please let us know.
As I wrote kdebase was compiled with: libsasl2-2.1.15-4mdk cyrus-sasl-2.1.15-9mdk libsasl2-devel-2.1.15-9mdk installed. When compiled without those libraries KMail didn't show any mails. m.
Don't forget to install cyrus-sasl PLAIN plugin, it's package name should be cyruas-sasl-plain or something similar.
As I found on rpmfind, on Mandrake it's called libsasl2-plug-plain. No need to recompile the kioslaves after you install the plugin.
Thanks. That was it: no plugins installed :/ I understand why there is no mention about that in dialog window, but maybe simple info while compiling (after ./configure): KIO smtp(?) will be compiled with support for SASL. Make sure you have installed plugins. Closing. Once again thanks for help.

FWIW you need to apt-get install libsasl2-modules for Debian. Tom thanks again :)
