[vchkpw] How to modify an email adress under vpopmail

2004-04-30 Thread Wael Ellouze



Hello Eeverybody,
I have a qmail and vpopmail, and i have100 
accounts under vpopmail.
I want to modify an email adress of some people. 
Can i do that without vdeluser and then vadduser ?

Example: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem is when 
i make:
vdeluser [EMAIL PROTECTED] and then 
vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED], i lose a message in the aacounts.

Thanks

Right.

I had occasion to do tis sort of thing (for the first time) just
yesterday.

Using the above example, what I did was:

* vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* rm -fr domains/test.com/alain-ab
* mv domains/test.com/alain domains/test.com/alain-ab
* vdeluser [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was subsequently informed that the move went well, so that would seem
encouraging.  :-}

(Actually, I then needed to make [EMAIL PROTECTED] an alias that pointed
to the (new) [EMAIL PROTECTED] and someone else @test.com.  But that was
because of the specific requirements I had for the case in point.)

Peace,
david
