RE: [vchkpw] Has the format of vpasswd file changed?
We added a clear password field that used to be default turned off for backwards compatibility. I think in later versions of 5.3 folks updated the code to support either. I'd recommend backing up your vpopmail/bin, lib and include directory then doing a regular install of vpopmail with --enable-clear-passwd=n. Re config/compile courier-imap from scratch. If that does not work you can put the old binaries back. I bet it would work. It's a good bet. Everything's working well now. Thanks for the suggestion. my 2cents Worth a lot more than that!

Vpopmail 5.2.2 includes the clear-passwd patches from the 5.3 series. You can --enable-clear-passwd and it will work properly with old vpasswd files. -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note: The Tom Logic offices will be closed October 23 to November 18.

Re: [vchkpw] Has the format of vpasswd file changed?
:EXPLANATION I am this close - '' to getting courier-imap to work (well) with vchkpw. I have compiled courier --without-authdaemon and --with-authvchkpw. I have been running vpopmail 5.2.1 for a while now, but on someone's advice I also compiled 5.3.29 and copied libvpopmail.a to the /home/vpopmail/lib directory, renaming the old one. I did this, of course, before I built courier-imap. Why did you do this? I realize my whole setup is cracked, especially the fact that I did not install vpopmail 5.3.29, that I'm just using the libvpopmail.a from it. I didn't want to screw up my vpopmail installation, since it has been working fine for so long now. If you dont want to use the vpopmail 5.3.x devel versions, you should instead use vpopmail-5.2.2, as this build includes many bugfixes over the 5.2.1 version, including one very important bug fix that relates to courier-imap Michael.
