[toaster] Enabling vpopmail clear-text passwords

[Peter Gutbrod]

To get CRAM-MD5 work in my qmail setup, I'd like to recompile vpopmail with
clear-text passwords enabled.

Does anyone know, whether this breaks the current vpasswd files? Or is
qmailtoaster smart enough to use the encrypted passwords, if it doesn't find
the  clear-text passwords, which obviously only exist for accounts, that
have their passwords reset after the recompile.

Furthermore, I have to to recompile Courier and qmail-smptd as well after
the vpopmail recompile, right?

Anything else that needs a recompile?

Thanks

Pete

Thanks Tom, so switching shouldn't break existing accounts.
