Dear eBox-team,

the smarthost authentication does not allow the '$'- or '§'-characters, although they could be part of some passwords.

Mail/Mail server options/Smarthost authentication

"The input contains invalid characters. All alphanumeric characters, plus these non alphanumeric chars: /.?&+:-@ and spaces are allowed."

Sorry that I did not open a ticket, but it was refused (possible spam).

Thank you very much in advance,

Björn  :)

That's a bug :) I've just fixed and uploaded a new package.

Thanks for reporting the issue :)

Thanks Javi!

It works fine now. I just noticed that the text field for the VPN-password has the same configuration. But I am not sure if this is a constraint of OpenVPN in that case. Just FYI.

Thanks and kind regards,

Björn  :)
