Those seem to be indications of larger problems. I would look at the
messages that sendauth/recvauth return and try to diagnose the problems
further.

I'll send them to you separately.

Well, popper is a V5 pop server; it won't work with V4 clients.
In theory, you could modify popper to use krb5_compat_recvauth() like
rshd and rlogind do, so you could handle either V4 or V5 tickets. I might
get around to doing that eventually, if someone else doesn't.
