I'm not sure if you've seen this link or not:

The part I'd specifically look at is disabling the forms of SASL auth 
which require access to the plain text password on the server side 
(cram-md5, digest-md5, etc).

On a somewhat related note, have you looked at ejabberd and Openfire? 
I looked at a number of XMPP servers for work a while back, and both of 
those impressed me quite a bit.  I ended up using Openfire since it ties 
in to Active Directory very well.
