All of the above processing is being done by qmail-local. It looks
as if one of the Maildir lines in your .qmail-aliasname file is
incorrect, causing the deferral.

This function actually calls:

first = 1 to start a new one, first = 0 for all subsequent calls
keep calling it while it returns non NULL.

I recommend not using an rpm installation. Use the qmail source code ;]

I had. the vadddomain program I ran was actually from

All of the vpopmail programs should support the -v option

This should print out a version number.

If you installed qmail from an rpm, some of the rpms
install a crontab that will destroy the /var/qmail/users/assign
file.
You'll need to find that cronjob and remove it. Then re-create
your assign and cdb file

need to recompile any programs which had linked in

He should be able to pop in for it. vchkpw supports /etc/passwd
accounts. The only restriction is he has to use Maildir and
not Mailbox.

vpopmail does have per user quota limits. Please see the

yes is that mysql uses a file
descriptor
per table. I think mysql normal keeps up to a maxium of 20 open
tables.
So if you have 20+ active domains, mysql will be opening and closing
database table files, which will slow down performance.

vcdir.c - source code for new vcdir program

vcdir reads in a domain's .dir_control file then writes it into

This provides a clean upgrade path to the new dir_control table

9.8 doesn't rely on reverse DNS anymore. It uses
a IP <--> domain mapping file. Use the vipmap program to
administer this file.
For example;
vipmap -a 1.2.3.4 domain1.com
Wiil add a new mapping of 1.2.3.4 to domain1.com
vipmap -p
will print out the current mapping.
