RE: [SM-USERS] change_mysqlpass issue

[p d. t. <pdo...@an...>]

Er, if the database received the new password, how in the world are you
able to log in with the old password...??!?!?  Ummmm I'm baffled.  The
only thing I can think of is that there is a cookie/session problem, but
that really shouldn't happen.

Can you do this:  have your interface to mysql open (keep an eye on the
password field) while you are logging in to SM, and then change your
password... did the database password change after you submitted it?
Then log out (and possibly close your browser) and log in again....

Uhhh... if the password changed in the database, then there is no way
you should be able to log in with the old password.  Period.  Unless
there is somewhere else it's looking for a password (not familiar with
vpopmail, but maybe it has a password cache or backup system or...???)
