[sork] again horde 3 and passwd => mysql failed to connect

[Maximilian Ebert]

Thx

i fixed it but now i get all the time the message password wrong. i  
think its because my passwords in the sql database of vpopmail r  
crypted is there any way to handle crypted passwords ? because all  
the crypt variables like blowfisch md5-hex etc. arent working.

greets

thx list!
