Mosquitto acl_file "topic readwrite #" breaking permissions [message #1786286]

Hi there,

I'm experimenting with Mosquitto and so far I love it. I'm struggling to get the acl_file working correctly.

I created a blank acl_file and added:

user testuser
topic readwrite #

After adding these 2 lines, the "testuser" user is no longer able to publish to topic: 'to/client1/test'. The message is silently dropped:

$ mosquitto_pub -p 1883 -q 2 -u testuser -P testpasswd -t 'to/client1/test' -m "message for client1"
$ echo $?
0

Removing the 2 lines from the acl file allows publishing again. Any ideas why this happens?
