Topic: Cluebringer refuse to let me in with postmaster@!

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.9.0
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

So, I tried to login to Cluebringer to add some IP's that I wan't to get mails from. Because now the most of the mails is rejected with:
"Recipient address rejected: Greylisting in effect, please come back later;"

Regarding to this guide: http://www.tecmint.com/install-iredmail-in-linux/
To access server Policyd anti-spam policy navigate to https://domain_name/cluebringer or https://server_IP/cluebringer/ and provide the following credentials.

User Name: postmaster@domain.tld
Password: postmaster password

That's a no GO for me...
user postmaster@TLD.domain: authentication failure for "/cluebringer": Password Mismatch

How to fix this?

In iRedMail-0.9.0, default password hash is SSHA512 on MySQL/PostgreSQL backends, but Apache basic auth doesn't support this, so you must reset this account's password to MD5. This is mentioned in iRedMail-0.9.0 release notes.

"you must reset this account's password to MD5"

What is the recommended way to do this?

Just issuing this command is not working.. 

UPDATE `mailbox` SET password = MD5(passwd123) WHERE username = 'postmaster@mymailserver.com';
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1  Changed: 1  Warnings: 0

Sorry about the confusion, it's salted MD5. You cannot use 'MD5()' function in MySQL.
Try to generate one with openssl:

# openssl passwd -1 'your_password'
