SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_checkapop(sasl_conn_t *conn,

unsigned challen,
const char *response,
unsigned resplen);
DESCRIPTION
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 in the doc/ directory of the SASL distribution.
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.
