Description Ronan Dunklau 2013-02-07 12:59:48 UTC 
After upgrading to 4.10, KMail cannot connect to my IMAP account on a dovecot server.

It always fails with the "LOGIN FAILED, AUTHENTICATION METHOD NOT SUPPORTED".

These accounts were configured using kmail 4.9, and used to work fine.

Every time the resource starts, I get the following message in the akonadi console logs:

A message was received from the server with no job to handle it: "A000002 OK Pre-login capabilities listed, post-login capabilities have more. "

On the other hand, my gmail imap account seems to work fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an imap resource against a Dovecot imap server, using any authentication method (except plain, maybe, because plain is not supported on my server)
2. Try to connect

Actual Results:  
Login failed, authentication mode <whatever authentication mode you configured at step 1> is not supported by the server.

Expected Results:  
Imap resource connected

In fact, as other have pointed out, the issue seems to lie with an openssl upgrade.
I was using openssl-1.0.1c with kmail 4.9, and simultaneously upgraded to kmail4.10 and openssl-1.0.1d.

Reverting back to kmail 4.9 does not solve my issue, but reverting to openssl-1.0.1d does.

I don't know your plans with regards to openssl compatibility, so I'll leave that open for now.
