Hi Qing,
Do you really want a web interface for solely letting users delete their
account? Why should they do so? Or are you looking for a function to
integrate into an existing web environment?
I want users to delete their own account if they are not going to use the service
any more.

Hi Qing,
I am using vQregister for users to regsiter email account.
Ah, ok - it's setuid, so it always runs with the right permissions.
vQregister runs as vpopmail.vchkpw. I have tried to php to call vuserinfo in
/home/vpopmail/bin/ but it returns nothing. I think it is the premission
Or another option is to just add the user to mysql and send an email
to the new account and let vpopmail create it for you.

Hi Jonas,
Yes true, I have also been talking with Qing in private emails so I sorta
crossed over
a little bit. :-)
Personally I think there is a need for another small tool/program similar
to
clearopensmtp that would look at the vpopmail table, and given a certain
value in the
uid/gid field, or
Well, if you are using mysql, why dont you use the veloldusers program
periodicly to delete unused accounts? you can perhaps delete accounts not
logged in for 3 months. Like hotmail does.
I think its a really bad idea to think that user will delete his email
when he doesnt use it :) Well I dont
well it is not a good idea to run php setuid, neither to run your web
server in your vpopmail user. which would effectively lead to your web
server able to delete user directories etc.
thus you can use an external perl script which can be invoked from php,
which has setuid.
or if you prefer a C
Now that's actually an idea I hadnt thought of. You could change the last
auth field for the user to some value like 12 months ago in the databasr
and then cron the vdeloldusers to delet anyone older than that value.
This wouldn't require any special permissions/perl scripts, just a crontab
Thats something I havent thought of also :) Yet you should wait until the
vdeloldusers program is run after you set your account to be deleted.
I think the best way is to run it from php by utilizing an external
program/script which has setuid. Which double checks the username/password
to be sure
Hello All,
I am on Redhat 7.3 with Qmail+vPopMail+QmailAdmin.
I want to use Outlook Express for my mails but vpopmail is not
authenticating the mail account from outlook.
These are my configure options :
./configure --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-default-domain=domain.com --en

your problem seems to be with your POP3 server. Not directly about
vpopmail. Is that UW-IMAP pop3 server? I would suggest trying courier-imap
pop3d, I think that would be most widely used with vpopmail and with
Maildir format.
if still doesnt work then perhaps your imap server cant read some files

Did you ever think about how can your pop3/imap servers would know about
your vpopmail configuration?
I mean those programs you are trying to use are designed to work with
system accounts...Plus its doubtful that your imap/pop3 server supports
maildir format.
Try to set your pop3 service
Oh yes , if you installed courier imap then you should disable there was
an example in google about this situation too

Well google is your friend :) use it wisely ;)

You should change it to reflect your configuration.
I dont know where is your vchkpw directory or your server fqdn or if your
qmail is in /var/qmail. So change those settings.
On the other hand I might be wrong, I dont use xinetd and I found this
configuration from google. Heh, I dont know how

Are you using mysql? or any other kind of database? I have figured out

Well no problem, but I think you should also change the foo.bar.com :)
Unless your mail server FQDN is foo.bar.com heh :) I suspect not though...
If you want to use courier-imap then look from google courier-imap
xinetd or with similar keywords to get sample configurations. Shouldnt be
hard. The

please respond to the list only; I'm subscribed and get your messages

I've checked :

well your problem cant be vchkpw because you wouldnt be able to login at
all if it was the problem.
try to see if your vpopmail utilities like vuserinfo etc. are working
properly. and there must be a way to get more logging of pop3d somehow :)

By a weird chance you might have lost your execute bit in your vchkpw
program?. Try
chmod u+x /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw
By the way you mentioned that you executed
chown -R /home/vpopmail/domains
