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.
