Docker build/pull with authentication

Hi
According to the following commands, when I supply my user name and password at hub.docker, the rate-limit is 200 and the remaining is also 200.

$ TOKEN=$(curl --user 'MY_USER:MY_PASS' "https://auth.docker.io/token?service=registry.docker.io&scope=repository:ratelimitpreview/test:pull" | jq -r .token)
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current

However, when I run the pull command, I get the rate-limit error.

$ docker pull hello-world
Using default tag: latest
Error response from daemon: toomanyrequests: You have reached your pull rate limit. You may increase the limit by authenticating and upgrading: https://www.docker.com/increase-rate-limit

According to docker pull --help, the is no option for authentication. So, I wonder how can I pass credentials to the pull (or build) command?

docker login
