Karthik,

Let us know the mask rule you are using.If you use like mentioned below, then the password field will accept only alphabets in both Upper and Lower case.

<field property="newpassword" depends="required,minlength,maxlength,mask">
<arg0 key="prompt.password"/>
<arg1 key="${var:minlength}" name="minlength" resource="false"/>
<arg2 key="${var:maxlength}" name="maxlength" resource="false"/>
<var>
<var-name>minlength</var-name>
<var-value>6</var-value>
</var>
<var>
<var-name>maxlength</var-name>
<var-value>12</var-value>
</var>
<arg3 key="${var:mask}" name="mask" resource="false"/>
<var>
<var-name>mask</var-name>
<var-value>^[a-zA-Z]+$</var-value>
</var>
</field>

Hi,

<field property="userLogin.password" depends="required,mask">
<msg name="mask" key="errors.invalid"/>
<arg0 key="userLogin.initialPassword"/>
<var>
<var-name>mask</var-name>
<var-value>[..reg-expression...]</var-value>
</var>
</field>

In the above mentioned way I have mapped the password field to mask rule
