Package: exim4
Version: 4.63-12
Severity: important
There seems to be no way to handle a password with special characters in
/etc/exim4/passwd.client. I can find no docs on this but have confirmed
that many special characters (including "^" and "$") in a password cause
exim4 to not authenticate as a client, and they don't seem to be
escapable via the normal means.
