[Dovecot] CRAM-MD5
Hi,
after getting dovecot working with PostgreSQL and plaintext passwords I tried to use md5 encrypted passwords with mozilla. www.roughtrade.net/dovecot says that Mozilla only supports CRAM-MD5 and that CRAM-MD5 is included in HEAD.
Now I have two questions:
- Is the md5 hash stored in passdb with cram-md5 the same as in digest-md5?
- Is a new dovecot stable build planned within the next two weeks (which includes CRAM-MD5)? (I guess the answer is no :-(
- Are there any dovecot rpms with pgsql and CRAM-md5 supprt?

Hi,
I think I should formulate my question a bit clearer:
- Is a new dovecot stable build planned within the next two weeks (which includes CRAM-MD5)? (I guess the answer is no :-(
does Dovecot 0.99.10.7 include the CRAM-MD5 patch so that mozilla can use encrypted passwords?

No, their hashes are not compatible.

I don't think I'll include CRAM-MD5 anymore to 0.99 series.

No, it's different.
If you have userdbpw handy, you can generate the hash values with userdbpw -hmac-md5.

I don't think Timo wants to add new functionality in the 0.99 series.

Don't know about RPMs, but I do know that the NetBSD port of Dovecot is using the patch at http://www.roughtrade.net/dovecot/dovecot-crammd5-0.99.10.6.diff (the NetBSD maintainer is four doors down from me).
