I'm going through PAM because I don't want to store passwords in plain text.

I have everything set up right, as near as I can tell. It's just that 
saslauthd isn't passing the realm. I'm told, on another list, that this 
is a "feature" of saslauthd from the latest version of sasl, which I'm 
using. I'm told there is supposed to be a patch out there, somewhere, to 
restore this behavior.

I haven't been able to find it yet. :(
