[Bug 398733] [NEW] Dovecot Plain auth broken in 1.1.1, fixed in 1.2.1

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have the following config, which under 1.1.1 will not authenticate
users when the password is a {plain} format value.  I know the config
worked pre-jaunty as Ive just transferred the files after upgrade.
Downloading and building 1.2.1 with no further config changes makes the
problem go away.  This is a regression.
