Apple Mail, Kerberos, and Server's Principle Name

All,
I have been trying to get Mail to work with Kerberos authentication
here at UNC-CH (Go HEELS!)

I have my Kerberos tickets (v4), but our Kerberos implementation on
campus requires users specify the Server's Principle name in their mail
client for Kerberos authentication to work to our imap server.

Our server's principle is: imap.mailserv0 at ISIS.UNC.EDU

I /think/ this is the problem, because I'm not able to get Kerberos
authentication working when I select Kerberos V4 as the method of
authentication for either my imap or smtp servers. Plaintext, however,
works just fine.

Does Mail allow this?

Thanks,
Joe
