====== Configuring SASL for mIRC ======


mIRC added built-in SASL support in version 7.48, released April 2017. The below instructions were written for version 7.51, released September 2017. Earlier versions of mIRC have unofficial third-party support for SASL, which is not documented here. Libera.Chat strongly recommends using the latest available version of your IRC client so that you are up-to-date with security fixes.

  * In the File menu, click Select Server…
  * In the Connect -> Servers section of the mIRC Options window, select the correct server inside the Libera.Chat folder, then click Edit
  * In the ''Login Method'' dropdown, select ''SASL (/CAP)''
  * In the second ''Password'' box at the bottom of the window, enter your Authserv username, then a colon, then your Authserv password. For example, ''VeryFakeNick:hunter2''
  * Click the OK button
