 hi,
 
 right now i am setting up a new qmailvpopmailsqwebamil box.
 on inter7.com i found release 5.0 of vpopmail.
 
 i am going to setup qmail 1.03, sqwebmail 3.00 and vpopmail 4.10.x.
 
 may i use 5.0 instead 4.10.x of vpopmail in combination with the other
 packages or will this be like playing with fire ? i need a reliable mailbox
 and cannot afford to loose customers. is vpopmail 5.0 reliable ?
 

5.0pre3, tomorrow it will be 5.0. Is actually the last
4.10 version. There are no known problems. I personally
set it up on a 4 machine cluster with over 300,000 users
and it has been rock solid for 2 months.

I recommend the 5.0 release. 5.0 is going to be the 
recommended version to use with sqwebmail 3.0. Took 
all summer to get there.

I've been using said setup for years now and have never had problems nor
lost customers.  The new features in Version 5.0 are incredible.  I would
personally wait til it becomes v5.0 final, instead of a pre-release.
4.10.x is development software, so you take your chances.  The last
*stable* release is 4.9.10.  If you can possibly wait til v5.0 becomes
production, I would.

Regards,

Tren.

Ken,

I have been reporting a problem for some time and have yet to get a version
that fixed it.
I have sent several mails. Has my issue been resolved?

If there is a feature that is hurting vpopmail alot in the mysql
implementation, is that it's still bouncing mail when it's unable to connect
to the mysql server (just saw this behaivour an hour ago with the 5pre3
release). will this ever be resolved ?

Anyone is free to submit code that fixes it. 
If you are waiting for me to do the work then
you might have to keep waiting, I'm pretty busy.
