KEEP ROOT THE HELL OUT OF EVERYTHING!
Root is a special user, you should only log in as root under the most extreme circumstances. Create a user name for yourself, assign the rights you need to administer your system to yourself, and leave root out if it.
Novell & even those idiots at M$Soft get this. NEVER EVER use the account that has *** ALL *** the keys to the kingdom for anything except when aboslutely required, especialy in E-MAIL!!!!.

again, but without any patch, and I installed vpopmail following instructions.
And just to mention that I am working on Slackware-8.1 and mysql- 3.23.56,
qmail-1.03 and vpopmail-5.2.1
Before instaling vpopmail I check qmail and it is working just as it is supposed
to, also MySQL is working.
