Greetings,

I have a mail server running Qmail, Courier-IMAP (running both imapd and pop3d) and vpopmail. Some of our clients are using Netscape mail which does not allow @ signs in usernames. I have read in numerous places that the fix is to use 'user%domain.com' rather than 'us@domain.com' but this does not seem to work with Courier's imapd or pop3d. Logins using the % sign fail authentication, while using the @ sign always works. Is there any way to make Courier allow % signs for authentication of broken email clients?

Or, if someone could point me to the right location in Courier's authentication source code for the vchkpw method I think I could probably hack something out to convert the % sign to @'s.

Thanks,
