Hello, I am using the mail_crypt plugin with Dovecot 2.3 and have issues trying to use a mail crypt private password which contains a percent "%" character as you can see below: $ doveadm -o plugin/mail_crypt_private_password=SomethingWith\%Percent mailbox cryptokey generate -u email at domain.tld -URf doveadm(email at domain.tld): Error: Failed to expand plugin setting mail_crypt_private_password = 'SomethingWith%Percent': Unknown variable '%P' Note here that the percent is escaped with a backslash "\%" in order for the shell not to process it. Regards, Mabi

We are aware of a bug affecting when % comes in from some field via userdb, and we are looking into how to fix this. Aki

I will then simply double the percent character as workaround for now as you suggest.
