I've now set up mail-source-bind to always check auth-sources (through
auth-source.el) for IMAP, POP, and everything else mail-source.el
supports. The user name and password will override any others that have
been set up; if this is incorrect I can rearrange the priority but I
think it's sensible and will make it easier for users to migrate to an
authinfo-centered setup.
