Dear All I have Postfix version 3.3.0, Dovecot Version 2.2.33.2 and PostfixAdmin version 3.3.10 using MySQL on a small device running Ubuntu VERSION="18.04.6 LTS (Bionic Beaver)" for my internal LAN Mail.
I have a user mailto:admin@fsoft.nnet with a mailbox setup in PostfixAdmin with a password as 'Test75?'
Everything is running fine, but I cannot get my Email Client Thunderbird to connect.
I have setup the debugging to see that the correct password is being used, which it is, but I have this error:
dovecot: auth-worker(26468): sql(mailto:admin@fsoft.nnet,10.6.10.10,<gB77wjLXGLsKBgoK>): Password mismatch (given password: Test75?)
showing that dovecot disagrees!!!
Why is this? Is it something to do with the permissions in PostfixAdmin?
I did find https://serverfault.com/questions/696715/password-mismatch-in-dovecot-with-p... where someone had the same problem. He just tried various passwords until he found one that worked!!!! I have not found any other post about this exact problem.
Any help much appreciated.
Regards
Francis
