I tried this, but with exactly the same results. no module for authentication 
against vpopmail's vchkpw was built.

thanks for that tip. i installed dovecot and it seems to work ( i tried it 
with one imap and imap-ssl connection). it's not my first solution, but good 
to known, that i can fall back in this server environment.

I ran into a problem very similar to this building authdaemon against
vpopmail-5.20 under NetBSD-3.1-i386.  After a lot of twists and turns
I modified the vpopmail source to build libvpopmail as a shared lib as
well as static.  I am not especially tallented with automake, autoconf
and libtool, in fact I had never modified a build to create shared
libs.  I found an excellent resource on how to do this at:

http://sourceware.org/autobook/autobook/autobook_toc.html

I successfully built libvpopmail.so, and placed it in a location where my
build of courier-authdaemon would link against it.  The build was
successful, and authdaemon is working flawlessly using the authvchkpw
module.  It was a good learning experience; glad I know how to do this
if I find myself in this situation again.  HTH

Sam has released courier-authlib-0.60.1. You may want to try that.

You could even use Dovecot to handle your POP3 if you wanted to.

I'm not very firm with compiler/linker staff, so i need help. can and like 
anyone here on this list help me ? it would be very great.

Until now, i tried different versions of vpopmail and courier's authdaemon and 
combinations of them. i also installed the mailserver services on an x86_64 
openbsd 4.1 with exactly the same results.

I also tried to configure vpopmail with --enable-shared option - knowing that 
this flag isn't listed by configure --help -, in order to get a shared 
version of libvpopmail, but this doesn' work. I thought, this could also 
solve my problem.
