• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Cannot change password in Horde/IMP webmail

Cannot change password in Horde/IMP webmail

This is plesk 8.2 running on Debian.

Attempts to change password in Horde give this result:
"Failure in changing password on Poppassd Server: Incorrect Password"

Attempts to change password at command prompt after telnet to localhost 106 gives this result:

200 poppassd v1.8.5 hello, who are you?
user [email protected]
200 Your password please.
pass redacted
500 Old password is incorrect.
Connection closed by foreign host.

It is very predictable.

I have found that I can use popassd to change the passwords for users where their password file is in /etc/passwd.

This is nice, but our mail password files are in:

/var/qmail/users/poppasswd

I have yet to find a way to make poppassd read /var/qmail/users/poppasswd

I could try to upgrade to the current version, but frankly I am afraid to do so. Maybe I will do so when I have the machine mirrored.
