RE: [vchkpw] new install with large amount of vpop users
Make sure your vpopmail user table has a pw_clear_passwd 'column'. A dump and an import into the new table would take care of that, a scp wouldn't.

RE: [vchkpw] new install with large amount of vpop users
THe version of vpopmail on the current box is, 5.2.1. The thing is, something is very wrong and we want to reinstall on a newer server. The mysql database has clear text passwords. The thing is, if we scp /var/db/mysql/vpopmail to new box that should be fine. But what is going to recreate all the /usr/home/vpopmail/domains/* ? That is the real question.
