CyberSentryApr 5

Hey @delta! I'm setting up a chatmail relay at the moment and I am wondering, if there is any upper limit for the password length that can be configured server side. Any suggestions?

Other than that, I find the project very interesting. Looking forward to future updates!

@CyberSentry chatmail.ini has a password length setting. There is no explicit upper limit likely but more than 32 chars hardly makes sense. But not sure. Maybe ask in support forum or on GitHub issue.

@delta Thank you for your reply! I am going to ask on GitHub. I was just curious since nine.testrun.org seems to have a minimum length of 50. I could not find any information about a technical limit documented anywhere.

I did not ask on GitHub, but instead in the forum, so for anyone curious: Here is the link to the forum post.

Maximum password length [limit for password_min_length]

I didn’t check but I would guess that this limit is in the Dovecot code base if there is one. This is the place where password_min_length is checked: This is where it’s used to generate a password: There is no “password length” check there.
