Hi,

some question about passdb backend:

I'll receive this (using dovecot 2.0.13, pgsql passdb backend) for some users:

mail dovecot: auth: passdb(account-username,127.0.0.1): Attempted login with 
password having illegal chars

Password schema ist crypt-md5. 
So what "chars" does dovecot not like (why?) and whats the preferred way to fix 
this?

regards

Torsten
