- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: "Sends an AUTHENTICATE command to authenticate the client. The <tt>auth_type</tt> parameter is a string that represents the authentication mechanism to be used. Currently Net::IMAP supports authentication mechanisms:"
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::VERB 
  body: "  LOGIN:: login using cleartext user and password.\n  CRAM-MD5:: login with cleartext user and encrypted password\n             (see [RFC-2195] for a full description).  This\n             mechanism requires that the server have the user's\n             password stored in clear-text password.\n"
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: "For both these mechanisms, there should be two <tt>args</tt>: username and (cleartext) password. A server may not support one or other of these mechanisms; check #capability() for a capability of the form &quot;AUTH=LOGIN&quot; or &quot;AUTH=CRAM-MD5&quot;."
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: "Authentication is done using the appropriate authenticator object: see @@authenticators for more information on plugging in your own authenticator."
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: "For example:"
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::VERB 
  body: "   imap.authenticate('LOGIN', user, password)\n"
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError is raised if authentication fails.
