Some mailers only support Binkp 1.0, not 1.1 or if they do, they do it wrong or
don't 
offer a 1.0 fallback (enforce CRAMMD5).  Binkp 1.1 needed for CRAM-MD5 support.
 
What he is saying you don't need it if you have Bink 1.1 with a correct 1.0
fallback. 
But some mailers don't have 1.1 or a fallback. 

Its working now for you, correct?
