Is there anyway to have rmuser remover the mail drop file associated with that account also, or am I just going to have to remove these manually? It really depends on what version of rmuser you have. In /usr/sbin/rmuser, do you have something similar to this code snippet?: if [ -f

Hi, 2) Better option is to change the default temp-name in qpopper.config: set temp-name %s.pop so that rmuser will detect it automatically. A third option is to write a wrapper shell script that first calls rmuser and then removes the remaining mail drop file, and use this script to
