RE: [vchkpw] Re: un-subscribe
Jeremy: Here is the header I have unscribed it. Few suggestion for the future: (1) Update the we site: http://www.inter7.com/?page=vpopmail and just below where it says subscribe add a line which says un-subscribe. Most web sites do that! (2) Mention to look into the message header somewhere so subscribers can see it and try to figure it out. (3) Do what other mailing lists do; automatically add a section on each posting which directs nailing list user how to do certain thing. Here is an example from another list: ___ Shorewall-users mailing list Post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe/Unsubscribe: https://lists.shorewall.net/mailman/listinfo/shorewall-users Support: http://www.shorewall.net/support.htm FAQ: http://www.shorewall.net/FAQ.htm This makes it easy for user to navigate various options. (4) Whenever someone does not follow or know the directions, do not get upset or make fun of users but simply ask Why someone did such a thing?, you may have an anser. Thanks.

RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail installation on a Client MySQL Server
Hello: Yesterday, I posted this message many people responded. I was following document http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/isp/webmail-server.htm;. When I tried to add a domain I will get an error: /home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain: error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient.so.12: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory Several people on this list responded. That made me thinking. Finally, I figured it out: During the build of vpopmail, include full path to the directory, as follows: ./configure \ (several options) --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql --enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql This did the trick.

Your vpopmail is trying to use shared libraries that can't be found on the system. Search for the path of the files libmysqlclient.* (find / | grep libmysqlclient) and check if it's listed at /etc/ld.so.conf. It must be listed at your $PATH environment variable as well. You must find the file libmysqlclient.so.12. If you don't find it, you may try to create a symbolic link to other libmysqlclient.so.XX. Best regards, Eduardo M. Bragatto.

Hello: I am posting this message on freeRADIUS, vpopmail mysql lists. This may get few people upset but please read I am trying to install (on RH9), qmail, vpopmail, mysql, Courier-IMAP, squirrelmail, etc., with backend data on MySQL. On another computer I have installed RH9 freeRADIUS server. vpopmail is used to add UID PW and the data is stored in vpopmail DB in MySQL. Now freeRADIUS also uses UID PW to authenticate and has its own data structure. I like to know if there is a way so that user data is stored in one table in MySQL so vpopmail and freeRADIUS can access the same information?? Thanks in advance. Kirti
