I installed vpopmail-4.9.6 with qmail on an ISP I support over three
years ago. Been running great but now, after a crash, POP is
reporting the client crashed. I have been unable to diagnose the
problem. I've rebuilt the OS (FreeBSD-4.2-RELEASE) and kernel, but no
improvement.

I'm told they had a power failure, so it's possible there was
filesystem damage.
-What might have changed
I support an ISP remotely, which is running FreeBSD-4.2-RELEASE with
vpopmail-4.9.6. I know they're old, but it would be very difficult to
upgrade now due to the site's remoteness.

Self-follow-up, hopefully useful.
I truss the process running the POP tcpserver, then the process it
forks when I connect to the POP port. I don't know if the ERR#9 is
fatal, and unfortunately can't trace the next forked process 33323
because the child crashes immediately after displaying the

It seems that the qmail, vpopmail, qmailadmin people tend to recommend
squirrelmail and sqwebmail. However, these are both imap clients.
SqWebMail isn't an IMAP client, it reads Maildirs natively.
Our initial reaction is to prefer (in order to save

If I'm going to install a couple of mailservers(vpopmail+qmail) and use an
NFS server for storage, is the Maildir the only directory that will be
shared by the mail servers. I think the tcp.smtp.cdb also needs to be
shared. Any others files?
How about

Well, I found the breaking point of vpopmail's open-smtp feature to be about
1500 domains (in an NFS environment). The actual breaking point isn't really
related to the amount of domains/users but rather how many and how freqently

On FreeBSD the DES libraries. libdescrypt is the DES+MD5
library.
Currently I have vpopmail+mysql authenticating successfully for BOTH MD5 and

This is standard Unix crypt behaviour. Unless you are using MD5

your system accounts will show the same behaviour.
There is probably a way to force vpopmail to use MD5 if the system
I have a site which I've just installed vpopmail on -- very very cool.
Now of course I want to move all these "system" users in /etc/passwd
out of the system and into a default virtual domain. I'll need to
