I have a large mail server with about 18000 domains. There are also
some servers that NFS
mount /var/vpopmail/domains /var/qmail/control /var/qmail/users from the
backend mail server.
For some months, its been working fine - all incoming SMTP/POP requests
go to the front end boxes, and it all

Does a command line util exist that can add users to this mailing list?
You could use the ezmlm-sub command line program

I'm a little confused about implementation of chkusr. i really want to

If it sees an existing .dir_control file then it will use the information
contained therein. Meaning the directories will continue to be in the sub
directorys.

Hi,
I'm running vpopmail 5.4.7 and while I was working on a script that checks
all user quotas and records some info so I can find dormant accounts.
I came across a number of recent accounts that did not have any quota at
all. Our default is 20MB. I've verified that we have a default value

Paul,
I would think you're ok putting vpopmail on your gateway servers.
Remember, the CHKUSR patch is only checking that the user exists to
vpopmail. I take it you're using the smtproutes file to forward to the
real server behind the gateway boxes? If so, you should be just fine.
It's not going
Right. But if you remove the .dir-control file and already have an
existing structure, are the routines smart enough to reuse the space and
skip where the directories are full? Or does it just start from
scratch in which you would reuse the directories but it would be
additive to existing

We are doing exactly this with our gateway MX server. First we replicate

If this is the case, why not NFS mount (read-only) the real vpopmail
directory structure so you can do CHKUSR lookups. If it's read-only
then there shouldn't be any impact other than network traffic to the
real backend server.

Are you using replication?
There might be a chance that vpopmail is trying to load the user record
so soon after writing it, that the read fails.
Go into vpopmail.c and look for this:
vsetuserquota (username, domain, quota);
And
thanks to everyone for the insights. while i still think it's kind of
'ugly' to have to replicate a portion of the vpopmail directory structure
on my MXes, i suppose the benefits will surely outweigh the 'ugliness'.
