Both the same bug for v7 and v8, Suite fails to login to a variety of popular self-hosted and online Inbound email inboxes.

Turns out, Suite requires this php module auth-sasl to connect successfully to many Linux mail servers (Dovecot, Cyrus, etc) and popular online email inbox service providers. This module provides support for several additional standard login protocols, not part of the basic PHP.
