[pkg-fetchmail-maint] Bug#568455: fetchmail, TLS/SSL with Exchange 2007 results in Autorization failures

[Matthias Andree]

This pretty much looks like a pilot error on either end of your link. I  
can successfully authenticate via GSSAPI (w/ Kerberos V under the hood) to  
a Cyrus server. It's also documented that fetchmail will try passwordless  
authentication schemes before exposing the password.

Try configuring kerberos properly (krb5.conf or krb5.ini according to site  
instructions) and running "kinit" before running "fetchmail". If that  
works, it's a problem on your end. If you can successfully obtain a  
ticket-granting ticket with kinit, but it's not good for authentication,  
contact the staff that sees to your Exchange server.

I propose to close this "bug" as it's not a fetchmail bug.  (If it can  
later be proven to be, you can reopen it.)
