Hi all,
Got a question on configuring dovecot, I'm still new at this so I
might be doing this all wrong.
I want dovecot to authenticate the mail client using CRAM-MD5 so I've
setup the config in dovecot.conf:
auth default {
mechanisms = cram-md5
passdb sql {
# Path for SQL configuration file, see doc/dovecot-sql-example.conf
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
}
<snipped>
}
In my dovecot-sql.conf I've setup the password scheme to be:
default_pass_scheme = MD5
Somehow this does not work, the error I see in the logfile is:
auth-worker(default): password(info at richard5.tld,127.0.0.1): Requested
CRAM-MD5 scheme, but we have only MD5
Is there a way to get this working or does this feature only works
with passwords stored in plain text ?
Thanks!
Richard
