    The sample server expects different input and an email client expects a
    different line to recognize the AUTH offer - it will not work.

    Keep it simple. Don't add SSL or anything else.

    If server and client work, then SASL works.
    Next step would be to configure the POP server and use "telnet localhost 110"
    to test if authentication works from the server to SASL. If that works, use a
    regular MUA.
