NAME

       sasl_checkapop - Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

       int sasl_checkapop(sasl_conn_t *conn,
                        const char *challenge,
                        unsigned challen,
                        const char *response,
                        unsigned resplen)

DESCRIPTION

       int sasl_checkapop(sasl_conn_t *conn,

       const char *challenge,

       unsigned challen,

       const char *response,

       unsigned resplen)
              sasl_checkapop   will  check  an APOP challenge/response.  APOP is an optional POP3
              (RFC 1939) authentication command which  uses  a  shared   secret  (password).  The
              password  is  stored  in the SASL secrets database.  For  information  on the  SASL
              shared secrets database see the System Administrators Guide.

              If  called  with  a  NULL challenge, sasl_checkapop() will check to see if the APOP
              mechanism is enabled.

RETURN VALUE

       sasl_checkapop returns an integer which corresponds to one of the following codes. SASL_OK
       indicates that the authentication is complete.  All  other  return  codes  indicate errors
       and  should  either  be  handled  or  the  authentication  session  should  be  quit.  See
       sasl_errors(3)  for  meanings of return codes.
