Strange behaviour with BLF-CRYPT and SHA*-CRYPT pasword schemas
Greetings,
this is less of a bug report or a help request, but we would like to know if someone can explain the following:
Environment: Centos 7 with Dovecot 2.3.4-2
default_pass_scheme = BLF-CRYPT password hash in database : BLF-CRYPT login = works
default_pass_scheme = SHA512 or SHA256-CRYPT password hash in database : BLF-CRYPT login = also works
default_pass_scheme = BLF-CRYPT password hash in database : SHA512-CRYPT login = does not work
Can someone explain these discrepancies?
-- Kind regards, Kristijan Savic

Thank you for the tip with CRYPT.
Is there any explanation for this behaviour though?
Why are BCRYPT hashes accepted when default_pass_scheme is set to SHA512-CRYPT and not vice versa? Is this normal?
