 download GQ its a gnome ldap admin,
i dont thin MD5 will work for ya, it didnt for me, use {crypt}string.
I think i pointed this somewhen before in one of my mails.
e.g. you can modify userPassword: and put the thing above.
Try `man enigma` or `man crypt` and read some more about it,
actually when a password is checked from the database it looks the first
{SYMB} can be MD5/SHA/CLEAR/CRYPT/MORE/AND MORE and then compares the
string, which is actually the passwd, if you look in qmail-popup.c
you`ll find it somewhere there (for qmail-pop3d).
and for courier-imap use crypt;)
