Bug#315636: sqwebmail: Doesn't parse out extra data in the comments field of /etc/passwd
The code in courier-authlib looks completely different to me. I suggest to bring up this problem on courier-users. It seems it was removed completely. While the original version removed the commas on the end, it now takes the whole original field: eee ee Eeee,,2, [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'll post to courier-users soon.

Yup, that sorted the problem out, I patched the file, built the package from source and reinstalled the authdaemon and it no longer has the GECOS information as part of the username. Great stuff Willi.

Bug#315636: sqwebmail: Doesn't parse out extra data in the comments field of /etc/passwd
Package: sqwebmail Version: 0.47-4 Severity: normal sqwebmail doesn't parse out any extra elements from the comments field after the name. It should only read up to before the first comma, then ignore the rest. For example, this is my entry in /etc/passwd: dezwart:x:1000:1000:Pete de Zwart0411 648 655:/home/dezwart:/bin/bash Thus, sqwebmail believed my name is: Pete de Zwart0411 648 655 Where as, it should only use: Pete de Zwart Having to change the From: field for each e-mail is a bit of a pain.
