Hi,
when do i have to apply SASLprep and on what? The RFC,
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4013.txt , just says it's applied on usernames
and passwords. So I'm asking:


   1. Do I need to apply SASLprep as server for all possible SASL mechanism
   or just Digest-MD5?
   2. Does everything still work if clients doen't apply SASLprep profile at
   all?
   3. At what point to do SASLprep on username and password? I mean do I use
   the prepped string for response string calculation or the non-prepped?


Cheers,
Tobias
