Encrypted Password: qGu7ggIwKRmU.

This is the ancient triple-DES password hash function, dating back to the dawn of UNIX. With those passwords, only the first eight letters of a password are significant. Anything beyong the first eight letters gets ignored.

If you want to use passwords longer than eight letters, you'll need to use more modern hash functions, you have several varieties you can choose from.

+--------------------------------+---------------+----------------+
| concat(`mailbox`,'@',`domain`) | password      | clear_password |
+--------------------------------+---------------+----------------+
| [email protected]          | qGu7ggIwKRmU. | ClearPass      |
+--------------------------------+---------------+----------------+

Note: the password hash was derived via <?php base64_encode(mhash(MHASH_SHA256, 'HornsbyIT')); ?>

No, that's not how this password hash was derived. I'm confident of that.
