Updating passwords

I created some new users in my MySQL database using postfoxadmin. The passwords looked correct in the database and show the right prefix {SHA256-CRYPT} but logins were failing, so I manually created new passwords from the command line:
doveadm pw -s SHA256-CRYPT -p “a password" -u kremels at kreme.com
{SHA256-CRYPT}$5$ZKsovTv0Ddc9k4…
I then went into the postfix database and manually updated the password field in the database.
update mailbox set password = '$5$ZKsovTv0Ddc9k4…' where username like 'kremels at kreme.com';
SOME of the accounts can now login, but not all.
I get a debug line like:
dovecot: auth-worker(26599): Debug: sql(kremels at kreme.com,xx.xx.xx.xx,<rnadomlookingstuff>): SHA256-CRYPT(a password) != '$5$ZKsovTv0Ddc9k4…
