I haven't found an answer by Googling or RTFMing yet, sorry. qmail-1.03 with vpopmail-5.3.9 (and sqwebmail and courier-imap and qmailadmin). I have created a virtual domain like foo.example.com and mail gets delivered properly to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'd like to masquerade the host/domain so that m

Convert FreeBSD /etc/passwd users to CDB: vconvert fail, passwd, mail?

2001-01-04 Thread Chris Shenton
I have a site which I've just installed vpopmail on -- very very cool. Now of course I want to move all these "system" users in /etc/passwd out of the system and into a default virtual domain. I'll need to * Create vpopmail users for each passwd user * Deal with the actual crypt() passwd * Tran

I support an ISP remotely, which is running FreeBSD-4.2-RELEASE with vpopmail-4.9.6. I know they're old, but it would be very difficult to upgrade now due to the site's remoteness. The machine was recently rebooted and vpopmail's POP now crashes upon successful authentication (names changed for p

[vchkpw] Upgrading from vpopmail 4.9.6 to something modern?

I installed vpopmail-4.9.6 with qmail on an ISP I support over three years ago. Been running great but now, after a crash, POP is reporting the client crashed. I have been unable to diagnose the problem. I've rebuilt the OS (FreeBSD-4.2-RELEASE) and kernel, but no improvement. I could build and
