it seems ports isn't updating vmysql.h. either try compiling from source or check the vpopmail ports package.. there are no parameters like --with-mysql-server="my.dbserver.com" --with-mysql-user="vpopmail" .. so ports would have to change vmysql.h itself -- Mit internetten Grüßen / Best Regards --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Justin Heesemann ionium Technologies [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ionium.org
