Email Password Authentication Issue

[Dallas Helquist]

I think your only hope for now is this:
http://www.storrow.org/Software/SPA_Auth/

It's going to take some work to compile properly - but according to the page
it has been used successfuly under a few different email/news clients.

Good luck - let us know!
