I've never used vpopmail, so how do they login in locally? I'd assume
you need to have /etc/pam.d/login or whatever talk to the db or

In vpopmail, the FULL email address is the username (you can designate a
"default domain" so that people who just use their username get this
domain silently added to their username for authentication purposes).
So in effect all domains are virtual.
In our case, account info is stored in MySQL which vpopmail queries
(vpopmail does all auth and mail deliveries). In other words, PAM is not
involved in any of this!
Well yeah, but what happens when they ssh or ftp to the server? That's
the part I'm confused about. How does vpopmail auth them locally for
things other than mail which goes back to the original question.
