1 Hi,
2
3 I set up a new mail server according to the 'Virtual Mailhosting System
4 with Postfix Guide'.
5
6 Almost everything is working like expected but still I got to issues (at
7 least for now):
8 1. the passwords are stored cleartext in the sql database
9 - how can I configure the system to use encrypted (MD5) passwords, as
10 that would make it possible to transfer all users from the old mail
11 server (RH) to the new one without the hazzle of distributing new
12 passwords to the users
13 2. TLS authentication
14 - if I use the eMail address as account name the authentication is not
15 working. The problem is that postfix (?) only reads the account name
16 until the '@' character. So for now I changed usercolumn=email to
17 usercolumn=uid but it would be nice to be able to use the email
18 address instead as usually the users don't know their uid.

20 Cheers,
21 Peter
