Comment(by MarkDoliner):

 nmftm: I don't think so.  When using clientLogin the password is sent over
 TLS or SSL, which I believe is designed such that rainbow tables are
 ineffective.  When not using clientLogin only a hash is sent, and the hash
 is generated using a random nonce (so the attacker would need a rainbow
 table for each random nonce, which means the rainbow table provides no
 benefit).
