RE: [HowTo] Password Changer Roundcube 0.3 Stable
Hello TheCry,

first of all: thank you for your great plugin!
I have the same problem as paladino.

I also found out the following:
In my case it's an ispcp installation with courier-imap as imap server.
Courier-imap authorizes users with its provided authdaemon which uses "userdb" to save login/pass information in a flat file as default.
If I change my email password through ispcp, the mail_pass field in the ispcp db is changed appropriately AND ispcp makes this change in the "userdb" file, too.
So if I change the password with ispcp, ispcp "talks" to courier-imap and tells it the new password.
If I change the password with your roundcube plugin, the password is updated correctly in the ispcp db but NOT in the "userdb" flat file.
Are you using dovecot or some other imap server?

Perhaps this problem can be resolved by telling courier-imap's authdaemon to use the ispcp mail_users mysql table to authorize users.
But this leads to the next problem: password encryption.
In ispcp passwords get encrypted with mcrypt, in courier-imap it's crypt as far as I found out.
