I have changed the password type a couple of times over the years and Dovecot gracefully manages password changes by keeping prefixes before the password so it can use multiple types., like {CRYPT} {MD5} and {DIGEST-MD5]
vimbadmin strips the type from the password prior to adding it to the database leaving me without the ability to change the password encryption scheme in the future.
