IMAP: Missing Authentification Type, only providing PLAIN

What Happened

I tried to add my mail account of the hosting company "Hetzner" which is quite popular in Germany. Its address for shared webspaces is mail.your-server.de. When trying to add it says something like: "IMAP authentification failed. IMAP server mail.your-server.de does not support authentification type PLAIN."

Expected Behavior

Provide an authentification type the host supports.

I assume this bug derives from a missing implementation piece by evolution data server, but I am not sure.

Platform Information

elementary OS 6 Odin, all updates applied.

This has probably already been fixed by #225 which uses the underlying Camel API to query for supported methods.

EDIT: Updated the wrong PR link

Nice, thank you for that quick reply!

So this probably is a duplicate to #226.
