Ah

As stated in the screen shot, the password needs special characters
(punctuation, in this case) and numbers.

>From what I can see from looking at the code, bugzilla doesn't regard § as any
kind of character that contributes to password complexity.  It's not a special
character or a digit or a letter.

Having it in your passoword isn't a problem, but it's not something that will
contribute to password complexity tests.

joerg§joerg won't work because it doesn't contain numbers or punctuation
characters.

joerg§joerg.1 would work fine as the dot and number meets the complexity test.

We have a bug open (bug 1265066) to address password complexity tests and make
them a bit more intelligent.
