Hello,

I have dovecot setup to pull passwords stored in plain from a database. My allowed authentication mechanisms are cram-md5 and digest-md5. Cram works but digest fails on my evolution client with and authentication failed. The server is running dovecot 0.99.14-1 on debian sarge. The user logging in is test@advanced-reality.com.

Some potentially relevant portions of dovecot.conf are: auth_mechanisms = digest-md5 cram-md5 auth_default_realm = auth_user = dovecot-auth

From the logs with auth_verbose = yes and auth_debug = yes in dovecot.conf: Mar 16 08:12:51 localhost dovecot-auth: PGSQL: Performing query: SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = 'test' AND domain = 'advanced-reality.com' AND active IS TRUE Mar 16 08:12:51 localhost dovecot-auth: digest-md5(test@advanced-reality.com): password mismatch Mar 16 08:12:51 localhost pop3-login: Aborted login [64.81.224.97]

Some preliminary searching led me to this: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2003-November/002598.html

Is there a problem with digest-md5 in this version of dovecot? Any pointers on how to troubleshoot this further?

Any additional help is appreciated. Let me know if additional information is needed. Thanks
