That's not SHA512-CRYPT. That's just a simple sha512 of the password, without
salt.
A SHA512-CRYPT password will be generated with:
printf "1234\n1234" | doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT
or:
doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT -p 1234
or:
mkpasswd -m sha-512 1234
(without the "{SHA512-CRYPT}" prefix)
What exactly is the difficulty you are having with converting the passwords?
What database engine are you using?
