-If nmh has been compiled with KPOP #defined, but without POPSERVICE being set to
-"kpop", the -kpop switch may be specified to cause the use of Kerberized POP
-rather than standard POP3 during a given invocation of \fIinc\fR.
+If nmh has been compiled with KPOP #defined, the `\-kpop' switch will allow
+\fIinc\fR to use Kerberized POP rather than standard POP3 on a given invocation.
+If POPSERVICE was also #defined to "kpop", \fIinc\fR will be hardwired to always
+use KPOP.

+If nmh has been compiled with SASL support, the `\-sasl' switch will enable
+the use of SASL authentication.  Depending on the SASL mechanism used, this
+may require an additional password prompt from the user (but the
+\*(lq.netrc\*(rq file can be used to store this password).  The
+`\-saslmech' switch can be used to select a particular SASL mechanism.
+
+If SASL authentication is successful, \fIinc\fR will attempt to negotiate
+a security layer for session encryption.  Encrypted traffic is labelled
+with `(encrypted)' and `(decrypted)' when viewing the POP transaction
+with the `\-snoop' switch.
