--- Comment #4 from Charles Lehner <cel at celehner.com> ---
What about using libsasl2 (Cyrus SASL)? This is what libetpan uses [1], and
claws-mail in Debian Testing (3.11.1-1) already depends on it.

Cyrus SASL supports SCRAM-SHA-1:
https://github.com/coapp-packages/cyrus-sasl/blob/master/plugins/scram.c

Example usage in a client:
http://www.cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/programming.php#client_section

On that note, couldn't we just use SCRAM-SHA-1 through libetpan for IMAP, as
with CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5? For SMTP, could we use sasl_client_* functions
from Cyrus SASL for the auth?
