Also, I find it a bit odd that its fixed in your code base, when I attempted to connect using SSL with the Yahoo IMAP servers they promptly hung up on me, are there some changes to be rolled out to the Yahoo IMAP servers as well?
(or have you gone to even greater lengths to obfuscate the IMAP connection between Zimbra & Yahoo to keep third parties out)?
this issue has been addressed from yahoo mail server side and the patches have just been rolled out to all servers. we added related support in desktop client code and it's in the next release. once we roll out the next release, server will phase out the old way of authentication. the new way of authentication will not send password over clear channels.
