Sure did.  I know about static vs. dynamic linking (but it doesn't hurt to
check anyway).

My rather unscientific and unhelpful guess is that there is some bad juju
going on in the 'authdaemon' code with respect to 'vpopmail', which
doesn't surprise me given that the 'vpopmail' support appears to be
deprecated from the perspective of the Courier maintainers (I think this
is a pity for reasons I've already mentioned).

Time to break out the debugger, methinks.  Does anyone know a reliable way
of making the 'vpopmail' style authentication fail?

I take on board later comments about using 'vchkpw' (even if I'm not sure
exactly what this means) only, but I don't think that's the right answer -
authdaemon provides a pretty flexible scheme for multiple authentication
types and I'm sure there are people that need to run more than one.
