So passwords containing TAB characters allowed to add new internal fields. The main problem here is a new "skip_password_check" field added in v1.0.11 to fix problems with master user logins. Specifying this field allowed the user to skip the password check, as the name implies.

Auth checking also the service
Hello everyone. I'm switching to dovecot from courier-imap and after some problems with Apple Mail client, now everything seems to be fine.
