> It seems that JDBC is the default digest alg when creating users. this works fine when the use repository doesn't have to work with anything else, but MD5 is more common.
> In my case, I'm using a custom configuration that allows me to use the same auth table for Tomcat and James. I think (though I haven't checked) that I can configure tomcat to use SHA, but I have a significan't amount of legacy data that uses MD5, whic is going to break thing.
> As of now, my only option is to *try* and recompile James with MD5 as the default (and I havn't had much luck yet). Because of that, this ticket is marked as Critical.
