also interesting is that t-mo will truncate any password at 15 characters without warning and then only accept 15 upon login..

At least that was the state of things about 2 weeks ago

My guess - varchar(15)

Adobe does the same thing with the horrible license-management selfcare site. Which, as far as I can tell, is some kind of SAP frontend.

And MySQL? ;-)

I reckon that is nowhere near enterpricey enough. I would be very surprised to find anything less than the biggest Oracle db running that crap.

But then you can't blame silent truncation on varchar(15) fields.
