Another Dictionary Question

We have created a custom list and added some entries to the dictionary file.  The issue I am having is that when a user tries a password and it has anyword in it it does not take the password.  Like 0r@ng3Gr@pE, if I try that the system will not take it and I am guessing its because we chose Detect inclusion of non-alpha characters.  My next question is that we tried another password that was not even a word and but it did have ho in it and it still kicked it back and would not take it.  Does the system look at the whole password and if it has any part or whole of a word it kicks it back?  Attached is what we have set.  Thanks for the help.

    Hi,

    If admin has configured dictionary rule and selected "A complete word from the dictionary" then entire password ( complete word) is validated against words in dictionary file. If admin has checked "Detect inclusion of non-alpha characters" then all non-alpha words are removed from password and then it is validated against words in dictionary file.

    I hope I answered your query. Please let me know if you need any more information.

    Regards,
