There is no obvious change in the passwd file. I haven't tried to look in spwf.db, but its time stamp also changes. -- Apple broke AppleScripting signatures in Mail.app, so no random signatures.

password reset
This is off topic, but I am not sure where to go. I have a local user who cannot login because of a forgotten password, so I went to reset her password with sudo passed Which appears to work, asking for a new password and a confirmation. No error occurs (unless I give it unmatched passwords), but the password is not changed. if I try to change the password in the user's account (after su ) t requires the old password. running on FreeBSD 11.0 When I try to change the password with sudo, the timestamp on /etc/passwd gets updated but there is nothing logged to anything in /var/log/
