I’m leaning towards choosing LDAP, CRAM-MD5, and plain, but I have a nagging doubt about DIGEST-MD5.

I feel like plain authentication is definitely one of the options, but I’m confused about whether Kerberos is supported too.

I remember practicing with a question that mentioned CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5, but I can't recall if both are valid for Dovecot.

This is a good question to test our understanding of Dovecot's authentication capabilities. Let me think through the options carefully and select the three I'm most certain about.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know Dovecot supports some common authentication methods, but I'm not sure I can remember all three. I'll just try to select the ones that seem most likely based on my limited knowledge.

Okay, I've used Dovecot before, so I think I've got this. LDAP, CRAM-MD5, and digest-MD5 are the three authentication mechanisms it supports. I'm confident in that answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Let me think through the authentication mechanisms I know Dovecot supports. I'll make my best guess and hope I get at least three right.

I'm pretty sure Dovecot supports LDAP, CRAM-MD5, and PLAIN authentication. I'll double-check the other options to make sure I have the right three.

Why do they always ask about obscure authentication mechanisms? I just want to check my email, not break into the Pentagon!

Digest-MD5? I haven't heard of that one before. But I guess it's a valid option too.
