user lookup fails username is SHA256 @domain
Hi all,
I'm currently building a replacement personal mailserver on Debian 11 (hopefully upgrade it to 12 and it will continue to work).
My existing personal mailserver is serving a handful of mailboxes for three domains, virtual users, on an older version of Debian.
When I attempt to deliver mail to the server (using swaks) it is accepted by Exim and passed to lda, as per the logs below the lda is somehow seeing the CRYPT entry as if it was the local part?
Output from syslog:

From what I've read 0x7b is hex for { so disallowed by auth_username_chars line is because of this problem.
Doveconf -n output:

Example of line in passwd file:
username:{SHA256-CRYPT}generated-sha
I followed https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/howto/simple_virtual_install/ before posting to ensure I hadn't missed something obvious.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
