[horde] strange login problem

[Stephane Caminade]

Hi,

Most likely it is something to do with the length of the password.
The first 8 chars are significant in some systems, and the rest is 
discarded.

You could have a look at this maybe, just ask him to type keht77&0 as 
password and see what happens.

Regards,
Stephane
