.TH CURLOPT_SASL_IR 3 "19 Jun 2014" libcurl libcurl
.SH NAME
CURLOPT_SASL_IR \- send initial response in first packet
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SASL_IR, long enable);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. If the value is 1, curl will send the initial response to the
server in the first authentication packet in order to reduce the number of
ping pong requests. Only applicable to the following supporting SASL
authentication mechanisms:

* Login
* Plain
* GSSAPI
* NTLM
* OAuth 2.0

Note: Whilst IMAP supports this option there is no need to explicitly set it,
as libcurl can determine the feature itself when the server supports the
SASL-IR CAPABILITY.
