Which program are you using to login? Webmail, or Thunderbird?
Is this an issue using Submission or IMAP?
What version of qmt are you using (Post output)?
# yum list | grep "\.qt."
Thanks!

yes, dovecot, as installed by instructions for CentOS 7 on
qmailtoaster.com <http://qmailtoaster.com> page.. but it appears to
be failing at the vpopmail level. Restarted dovecot, no luck, still
can't log in. An example on the command-line...
# /home/vpopmail/bin/vchangepw
Please enter the email address:
[ I enter "a...@axdev.net <mailto:a...@axdev.net>" ]
Enter old password:
[ I copy and paste pw_clear_passwd value for pw_name = alex in
vpopmail.axdev_net table ]
Error: authentication failed!
Thanks,

Hi Alexander,
Is this Dovecot/IMAP?
If so on one occasion a restart of dovecot solved the issue. Also,
I've removed the digest-md5 and cram-md5 from the dovecot
configuration (auth_mechanisms = plain login) and used the same for
the squirremail (/etc/squirrelmail/config.php: $imap_auth_mech =
'login';) and roundcube (/etc/roundcubemail/config.inc.php:
$config['imap_auth_type'] = PLAIN;) webmail.

hello... I've been running a qmail toaster on CentOS 5 for a while
now... works great, thanks for all your efforts!
I'm in the process of updating my hosting and deploying a
new toaster on CentOS 7, specifically a DigitalOcean droplet running
CentOS 7.4.1708. Install went smoothly... output looks good with
all services [ok].
Problem is... email users can't log in. Everything appears to be
working, all the programs run, but vpopmail never successfully
authenticates, even when I know the password is right. (I've
checked the vpopmail database and verified the pw_clear_passwd
column in the user's record). when I run the vchangepw program from
the command line and enter the user's old password, I get "Error:
authentication failed!".
Not sure how to debug this... it's just a silent failure. Have you
come across this before? Would this question be better asked on the
mailing list? I'd rather not subscribe to another list, but if
it'll help, then ok.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts...
cheers,
AF
