Description Andreas Scherf 2005-03-17 19:04:19 UTC

Version:           1.8 (using KDE 3.4.0 Level "a" , SUSE 9.2 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 (pre 3.3.5 20040809)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-24.10-default

After pressing the "send" button on KMail i got the follwing message:

Authentifizierung fehlgeschlagen, An error occured during authentication: SASL(-4): no mechanism available: No worthy mechs found wird nicht unterstützt.

My Mail Provider is Web.de and my EMail Account runs well on KMail 1.7.2 .. whats the Problem here ?

What SASL packages do you have installed? Have you tried to install the remaining ones?

Use google to find the homepage, if you are interested in more details, if not, just use the packagemanager of your choice and search for sasl to install the packages. The packages are needed because they provide the functionality for authentification. You will find that term "sasl" in the error-message you posted.
