This isn't an IMAP question, per se, but a SASL one.

Still, the issue here is that you're using a different Authorization
|
|
identifier, and the server's neither allowing this, or rejecting your
|
|
authentication. I'd have thought one or other would be the correct thing to
|
|
do, and silently ignoring it would be a "bad" thing.
|
|

Dave.
