Re: [vchkpw] IMP, vpopmail, and v-users changing passwords?
Juging from the subject, if you're using IMP, you can get the 'Passwd' module that integrates a interface to change passwords for users. The new version includes support for the vpopmail, and in my case, I just hacked the code a little to fit my install (very easy to do).

[vchkpw] IMP, vpopmail, and v-users changing passwords?
So... someone prior to my tenure here set up vpopmail and IMP, but it seems that the current implementation (as he left it) only provides support for UNIX users changing their passwords -- not virtual users. I see where there appears to be some intended support for this, but it looks to me as if that presumes that the Web server is running on the same machine as the mail server -- which (of course!) is not the case for us. Would anyone care to provide a pointer to a hint for how to accomplish allowing virtual users to change their own passwords? We're using vpopmail 5.3.16, horde 2.2.1, and imp 3.1.3 in a FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE environment. Thanks, david -- David H. Wolfskill [EMAIL PROTECTED]
