Yes.

Especially since I was thinking about doing a {BLOWFISH} for the
$2$ MCF this weekend.

Also, Timo, do you think it would be worth have a compatability
userdb/passdb for migrants from Courier's USERDB?

Andrey, how does the NTLM password scheme relate to OpenLDAP's
{LANMAN} scheme?  As far as I can tell, {NTLM} uses md4 whilst
{LANMAN} uses des.  Is that correct?

Joshua.
