Should this be a concern? You can find answers to all these questions by searching vchkpw archives.

Do you mean in the newer versions of vpopmail, newly added domains reuse the same entry? Also, is there any documentation anywhere about "dir_control" works? From what I understand it's to do with hashing, am I right? But what exactly? For example I would like to understand how "dom_507" relates to test65.com.. Also is there anyway to manage "dir_control", if say the table grows too large, like a purging command? Should this be a concern? Cheers,Michael. _ Got a cool Hotmail story?

[vchkpw] deleting domains and dir_control
Hi Guys, I have a simple question. I created a domain test65.com and my dir_control table looks like this: test65.com103000616161024000 dom_507103000616161024000 I then deleted the domain which was removed from dir_control, but the "dom_507" record was not.Is this the way it's supposed to work? If so, what is the reason for leaving the above record in the table, although the domain was deleted? Excuse my ignorance, but I have no idea what the "dir_control" table is for and how it works. If someone could shed some light on this I would be most grateful.
