Hi All,
I was wondering about packet passwords, are they case insensitive or not?
FMail has always forced them to uppercase on entry in the configuration, and
does a case insensitive compare on the password contained in arrived packet
files.
fts-0001.016 just says this about the password:
password (some impls)
eight bytes
null padded
"bytes": So it could be anything, including "high ascii".
When I look at the packets I receive, there are some with lower or even mixed
case passwords.
(So it's a good thing FMail does a case insensitive compare, otherwise it
wouldn't match against the configured uppercase password)
Bye, Wilfred.
