dovecot - Feb 2022 - Password Mismatch when connecting from Email Client

Well my PostfixAdmin is setup like this:



$CONF['encrypt'] = 'md5crypt';



and dovecot?default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT



So I would have thought that would match OK.



I have tried a password with just AlphaNumeric characters, no special chars but
same error.

Use

$CONF['encrypt'] = 'dovecot:MD5-CRYPT'
$CONF['dovecotpw'] = "/path/to/doveadm pw";

in conf.inc.php of Postfixadmin.
