As Tom had said before, authvchkpw is *not* using vchkpw, instead it's a module of Courier which does the same as vchkpw. It uses the same library, but that's it. The logging feature is in vchkpw, so that's why it wouldn't appear if you used the module authvchkpw. Is it possible that it is using the same information store of usernames and passwords as vchkpw but not actually calling vchkpw? If you want to use vchkpw for IMAP authentication, I'd recommend BINCIMAP. That's what I'm using right now and does log as expected. :) Regards, Andryan

* Robert Kropiewnicki [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2005-01-13 17:16]: ./configure. In the configuration I'm using, the specified authentication method was to use authvchkpw, which I would assume (I am not a programmer) means it is using vchkpw. Nope, it does not. Sqwebmail and Courier (both using the Courier Authentication Lib now) do the authentication via libvpopmail.a not vchkpw. This is the reason you have to recompile them if you update vpopmail. I once used a patched vpopmail version by Vladimir Kabanov that enabled me to have Courier IMAP auth against vchkpw. I would prefer if Courier and Sqwebmail would support this. Is it possible that it is using the same information store of usernames and passwords as vchkpw but not actually calling vchkpw? Exactly.

Quoted from vpopmail's FAQ: vpopmail is a collection of programs to automate creation and maintence of non /etc/passwd virutal domain email and pop accounts for qmail installations. You still have to use Courier-IMAP/BINC for IMAP, and/or qmail-pop3d for POP3 and so on. Regards, Andryan

[vchkpw] Vpopmail 5.4.9 released
http://vpopmail.sf.net/
Release Notes:
This release consists of minor bug changes to the stable version
of vpopmail.
Probably the most significant fix was related to SMTP AUTH causing
segfaults on the amd64 platform. We finally found the cause of
the problem and fixed it.
Also, if you're using PostgreSQL, you should now be able to enable
auth logging to the database instead of a file.
ChangeLog:
Jeremy Kister
- Makefile.am: fix install problem on Solaris. Some .h files
weren't being installed correctly.
Charles Boening
- Fix logging in PostgreSQL.
- Change ENABLE_{MY|PG}SQL_LOGGING to ENABLE_SQL_LOGGING.
- Replace --enable-{my|pg}sql-logging with --enable-sql-logging
in configure options.
Tom Collins
- Tweaking of Charles Boening's changes.
- vchkpw: Fix problem in md5.h causing segfault in SMTP AUTH on
amd64. [964843, 958799]
- vpopmail.h: Add new error and flag defines from 5.5 series.
- vchkpw: log webmail connections as 'vchkpw-webmail'.
- vpopmail.c: fix problem related to sending SIGHUP to qmail-send.
Original problem could cause Signal 1 caught by ps error.
