Fantastic idea. This would allow me to add Spam directories for domains

Fantastic. I was just wondering about this the other day and was about to
write a bunch of nasty frontend scripts to vpopmail to workaround this
issue. I prefer to use an IMAPdir structure instead of Maildir++, and

Yes. I'm suggesting that we could use directory names outside of the
user namespace so that you could have bigdir support and one-character
email addresses at the same time.
It would be difficult to handle existing domains though... There would
need to be a lot of directory renaming and

Consider domain/@skel/ as the source. Using domain/etc/skel causes
problems if

There is a patch on SourceForge to add skel directory support to
vpopmail, but we decided not to include it since it uses a system call
to 'cp' to copy the files -- it would be better to do the copying within
vpopmail itself.

If anyone else knows of another patch/method, please post.
I will post a link to the patch when it's

i.e. Does vpopmail support the concept of a skel directory like the
adduser command uses /etc/skel
