To use SASL, a protocol includes a command for identifying and +authenticating a user to a server and for optionally negotiating protection +of subsequent protocol interactions. If its use is negotiated, a security +layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection. + +This is the Cyrus SASL API implentation. It can be used on the client or +server side to provide authentication. See RFC 2222 for more information. + +There's a mailing list for Cyrus SASL.
