Hi, after getting dovecot working with PostgreSQL and plaintext passwords I tried to use md5 encrypted passwords with mozilla. www.roughtrade.net/dovecot says that Mozilla only supports CRAM-MD5 and that CRAM-MD5 is included in HEAD. Now I have two questions: 1) Is the md5 hash stored in passdb with cram-md5 the same as in digest-md5? 2) Is a new dovecot stable build planned within the next two weeks (which includes CRAM-MD5)? (I guess the answer is no :-( 3) Are there any dovecot rpms with pgsql and CRAM-md5 supprt? -- Felix
Hi, I think I should formulate my question a bit clearer:> 2) Is a new dovecot stable build planned within the next two weeks > (which includes CRAM-MD5)? (I guess the answer is no :-(does Dovecot 0.99.10.7 include the CRAM-MD5 patch so that mozilla can use encrypted passwords? -- Felix

(I guess the answer is no :-(I don't think I'll include CRAM-MD5 anymore to 0.99 series. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

If you have userdbpw handy, you can generate the hash values with userdbpw -hmac-md5.> 2) Is a new dovecot stable build planned within the next two weeks > (which includes CRAM-MD5)? (I guess the answer is no :-(I don't think Timo wants to add new functionality in the 0.99 series.> 3) Are there any dovecot rpms with pgsql and CRAM-md5 supprt?Don't know about RPMs, but I do know that the NetBSD port of Dovecot is using the patch at http://www.roughtrade.net/dovecot/dovecot-crammd5-0.99.10.6.diff (the NetBSD maintainer is four doors down from me). - Joshua. -- Joshua Goodall "as modern as tomorrow afternoon" joshua at roughtrade.net - FW109 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
