Found a problem with dovecot 1.0.3 and mysql authentication

I got a problem with escaping of mysql table names. Usually, when a mysql table name has some special character (in my case there is a table beginning with the # character) one has to put into these special quotes --- ` ---; others like ' oder " are not recognized. But dovecot somehow doesn't allow me to do that.

password_query = "select password, from #table where .."

I don't know what you mean by putting into special quotes. Can you given an example? But if you tried to use # it would be treated as a comment, so you'd have to put the whole setting inside quotes:
