For your problems 1) and 2) below:

1) You can forward goonda.org accounts anywhere you want - create .qmail files
   in ~vpopmail/domains/goonda.org of the form .qmail-userid

2) You have to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or userid%goonda.org) as the POP user, unless 
you     
   set up goonda.org as your default domain, like this (from vpopmail's FAQ, question 
#0):
 
      rm ~vpopmail/users
      ln -s ~vpopmail/domains/goonda.org ~vpopmail/users

As to your other questions:

   - vchkpw logs to syslog (only!?), which can be a real PITA 

   - I don't know sendmail, and don't want to know sendmail!
