[Bug 392450] Re: mail-notification doesn't notify me. Base64 error.

[Jan Rathmann]

I have also seen this on my Jaunty installation since the last two days.
I can work around this by changing the authentification mechanism (System -> Mail-Notification-Settings -> Account properties -> Connection -> Mechanism) from "Automatic" to something else (USER/PASS, APOP, CRAM-MD5 worked for my account). The error message appears also when I select DIGEST-MD5, so this is obviously the authentication method that gets selected when "Automatic" is chosen.

Two days ago a security update to the libsals2-2 package was installed,
since this library seems to contain implementations for these
authentification protocols, it may have caused the problem.

Kind regards,
Jan
