The curiosity in me wanted to check out GSSAPI for authentication, but the IMAP server replied with SASL(-4): no mechanism available: no worthy mechs found.

Of course, I need the krb5-user package and run the kinit command to retrieve a valid Kerberos session ticket. What wasn’t so obvious was the need for the package libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit. Voila! Got me some emails :D
