+Michael,
+
+Yes, bugzilla limits passwords to at least six chars. I suggested enforcing six
+minimum chars because I do not know the level of difficulty to change it in
+bugzilla.
+
+Either solution can solve this bug. For me makes little difference, but I agree
+it can be annoying for novice users.
