Summary: Cracklib support for strong passwords
Initial Comment:
I'd love to see support for the use of cracklib, where the Admin can define the password criteria on a per-domain basis, in a simple screen...
Min Length:
Duration:
# of Upper Case characters:
# of Lower Case characters:
# of Number characters:
# of Non-AlphaNumeric characters:
Illegal characters:
Hmmm... duration would also require Cron support I guess... and also the ability to send email notifications (similar to Quota notifications) so the user knows when they need to change it - maybe even with a link to a secure change password page so if they let it expire, they can still go change it without having to call support...

Your requirements should be able to fulfill with a set of RegExes, for
example "at least 2 uppercase characters" would be "/[A-Z].*[A-Z]/".
Therefore I'm closing this as duplicate of
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1785513&group_id=191583&atid=937967
The only exception is the duration / expiration date of passwords - but
that's something I'm not planning to implement because it would be the only
thing requiring a cron job.
BTW, how would you enforce this? Disabling SMTP and POP3 logins is insane
(and would even be possible without a cronjob - do it in SQL), and users
won't care much if they only get a warning in PostfixAdmin. Besides
activating vacation, most users never login in PostfixAdmin.
If you only want to send a "please change your password" mail, this can
easily be done with an additional field for the expiration date and an
external cron script. (I'd accept a patch and a script for ADDITIONS/, but
won't do it myself.)
Therefore closing as 90% duplicate and 10% wontfix ;-)
If you don't agree, feel free to reopen.

I'd still like to see this happen, although I no longer have any interest
in setting a duration, so no cron support would be required...

Is there anything else you'd like adding ? :-)
It seems a good idea - and there is http://pecl.php.net/package/crack
which would help somewhat.
