vpopmail and qmailadmin should mimic default qmail behaviour as closely as 
possible. If this change was made to make spamassassin like stuff work, then 
I propose a workaround that does not break the previous standard. Wouldn't it 
be possible to make vpopmail more intelligent? Maybe also implement a plugin 
system and a backend auth daemon like the stuff Mr. Sam has done?
