My edits to this page are based on a quick read of the RFCs/I-Ds rather than any prior familiarity with SASL. Anyone who's actually familiar with it as designed and/or deployed should feel free to edit.

The framework RFC implies that the separation between authentication and authorization identifiers might be a key aspect of this protocol, but I don't understand this well enough to write about it. Perhaps someone else could comment?

[edit] SASL Mechanism missing

The SASL mechanism "LOGIN" (referenced in PLAIN) is missing. Anyone care to write about it? 201.213.16.47 15:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
