• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

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.
