Yeah, maybe you're right.... >> SuSe use Blowfish to save the passwords, but Fedora does not recognize >> this kind of encryption.

I follow your advice, but courier-authlib only can use blowfish crypted password if the users are in the passwd/shadow file. This is because authpam use the PAM module, but in the case of authmysql, courier use the definitions of the file checkpassword.c and checkpasswordmd5.c (only md5_crypt and md5_hash_courier functions defined in the md5 directory). I'm working in "quick&easy" integration of the xcrypt functions in my courier-auth-lib installation. It will be a solution to my problem, but could be a start point for the future integration in the package.. If somebody resolve this problem before, I'll be thankful if can share the solution.
