I got it to work with the MD5 hashing method by manually setting a
password. However, if I try using the SHA512 hash, the one I'd really
prefer to use, it will authenticate fine with the password. However, if
I change it in sqwebmail, then it reverts to the DES based algorithm. I
get a hash string in the form {CRYPT}<DES hash>. Is this a Courier
thing, something with my setup, or a me thing?
To let you know what I did, I first used the encrypt function in mysql
to set the password on an account. I passed $6$ followed by 8 random
characters and the $ character as the salt argument to that function.
Then I checked the string in the table. Fine so far.
Then I set the password in sqwebmail and then checked it again in mysql.
Now is when the reverting back to DES based algorithm happened.
If I must use the MD5 based algorithm I will. But I'd really prefer
SHA256 or SHA512 if it can be done. Please advise?
