write your own
Last, but not least, the most flexible method of authentication for PLAIN is to write your own. If you do so, any application that calls the "sasl_checkpass()" routine or uses PLAIN will invoke your code. The easiest place to modify the plaintext authentication routines is to modify the routine "_sasl_checkpass()" in the file lib/server.c to support a new method, and to add that method to lib/checkpw.c. Be sure to add a prototype in lib/saslint.h!
