Topic: Icelandic characters in password

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====

Hi - we have very serious trouble - users can change password using icelandic characters (like Á, É, Í, Ó, Ö, Ú, Ý ), Roundcubemail authentification works fine afterwards, however setting up SMTP/IMAP - system would show password is invalid !

Can you pleas provide fast fix for this :
1. Either make those letters work everywhere
2. Or Enable non ascii check in roundcube mail  ?

Thank you.

Hi,
From my experience,stick with good old lower ASCII codes, <= 128. Even using umlauts in the comments of config files renders them unusable, same with passwords.

Hi Peter,
Well, to stick to ASCII we need a proper validator, as we cant control all our users - they are changing passwords themselves. And thats the issue

Re: Icelandic characters in password

I suggest submitting an issue to ask Roundcube developers implement this in official password plugin.
