Hello,

I use Courier 0.37.3 and want to use userdb.

This code is over three years old, and nobody really wants to use it.

Also I'd like to know why userdbpw generates different output for the same password during different runs.

There's a random seed that's a part of each password.

And what about using account names of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] in userdb? The manpage of makeuserdb seems to recommend this. But /etc/courier/userdb is also used by the Courier MTA in deciding if a given e-mail address is valid and where the destination mailbox is located. If I'd have an account name "hello" in userdb, the MTA would accept mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now, if I'd have an account name "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in userdb, would this mean that the MTA would accept mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]@realdomain.com?

No, it means that you need to read the description of the locals and the hosteddomains files in the courier(8) man page.
