if password complexity is set on, then a new password must have three of the
follwoing four types of character;
Upper case
Lower case
Numeric
Special (!"£$ etc)

Therefore characters of the same case with a number added would not suffice.
e.g.
password1 not valid (lower case, numeric)
Password1 valid (upper case, lower case, numeric)

I think 8 is the default default domain policy password length so it should
be ok if it hasn't been changed.
