  I know that you are still testing but don't forget to remove your
  "message" statements in nnimap.el -- it prints out passwords.

  Not sure where it is but I believe Gnus has facilities to inhibit the
  display of passwords as well as only messaging when debugging is
  turned on (and at different loglevels).
  
  Also. can you consider handling the error when either module support
  is not enabled or the emacs-gssapi module is unavailable?

  Bonus points if the authenicator falls back to using the "gsasl" or
  "imtest" program, if configured:


(defcustom gssapi-program (list
                           (concat "gsasl %s %p "
                                   "--mechanism GSSAPI "
                                   "--authentication-id %l")
                           "imtest -m gssapi -u %l -p %p %s")


  Thanks.
