I have recently converted a mailserver running a shupp toaster to mysql from
cbd. I ran vconvert -c -m and all the popboxes were entered into the mysql
database, but none of the aliases (.qmail-xxx) were converted and none of
them show up in qmailadmin. They still accept and forward mail though
number and group ID number from the original qmailrocks
machine. Then I change the ownership of this directory tree to
vpopmail:vchkpw. I then have run vconvert -c -m to convert all of the
domains, but it explicitly says it fails. Then I have copied the

What does 'vconvert' assume about /etc/password source domains?
Where does it expect the users' files? Can it work against NFS-stored
Maildirs?
Can someone comment on the state of vconvert please? Available

Did you properly set your mysql user/permission in according with
