Hello,

If when you create a user, you give the user a password with a space in
it, the spaces are unceremoniously ommitted from the password. I think
the world can live with an RT that forbids spaces in passwords, but I
don’t think the world can live with an RT that doesn’t tell you that.

Thanks,

Is it that hte spaces are ommitted or that the password is chopped before the first space?

the spaces are omitted. e.g., I gave a password of “el senor”, and it
actually became “elsenor”.
