The problem wasn't that I couldn't authenticate but that I wasn't able to enter the username into userdb in the first place, using the userdb tool: # userdb "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" set home=/var/vmail/example.com/foo uid=500 gid=500 # userdb "bar%example.com" set home=/var/vmail/example.com/bar uid=500 gid=500 Invalid name: bar%example.com After entering the name manually into userdb file, authentication appears to work: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE ACL ACL2=UNION STARTTLS] Courier-IMAP ready.

But why does the userdb tool try to keep me from entering that user? Am I playing against some rule? Will I lose % sign support in some later version?
