    bk> Hi,
    bk> As it is written in subject I can't authenticate to my local dovecot

    bk> this problem if I use default ~/.authinfo file. If it's not exist it's

    bk> machine localhost login bk <at> asterio.cloud password pass

    bk> My minimal ~/.emacs file
    bk> (setq auth-source-debug 'trivia)
    bk> (setq auth-sources '(password-store))

(info "(auth) Help for users") describes how to enable `pass', and
thatʼs not it.
