DESCRIPTION
sasl_checkapop()

secrets database see the
System Administrators Guide
in the doc/ directory of the SASL distribution.
If called with a
I 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.
