did you verify that "libetpan is built with SASL support and the DIGEST-MD5 SASL module is installed"? libetpan-1.9.3-2.fc31.x86_64 installed. > libetpan-1.9.3-2.fc31.x86_64 installed.
That confirms that you have libetpan installed, but not whether it is built with SASL support and the DIGEST-MD5 SASL module is installed.
It looks like you also need this package installed: cyrus-sasl-md5 Do you have that installed? cyrus-sasl-md5-2.1.27-2.fc31.x86_64 also installed. libetpan-1.9.3-2.fc31.x86_64 is built with SASL support: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/libetpan/1.9.3/2.fc31/data/logs/x86_64/build.log $ rpm -qR libetpan|grep -i sasl libsasl2.so.3()(64bit) Did you try SCRAM-SHA-1 also? Since MD5 encryption is broken it might be the case that the server does not allow using Digest-MD5 anymore. SCRAM-SHA-1 works fine, although only the first mailbox in the list worked fine yesterday, and the others had the same error. After the reboot, everything worked fine again. Squirrelmail works well with the server via DIGEST-MD5. I was thinking, maybe Claws Mail uses a pseudo-random number generator for this authentication, and the problem is with it? > I was thinking, maybe Claws Mail uses a pseudo-random number generator

If so, that would be a problem in libetpan (which is where this entire problem could be located).
