this should do the trick:
strings vpasswd


The resulting file needs some handwork tough but basically it works.

Hi,

You can use cdbdump to dump the password file from the cdb file.  You 
will need to do a little data massaging after.  I've done it before and 
it took me about 5 minutes to recover it with a perl script.

Hi,
to recover I don't know. Bu I would try do create a new vpasswd file 
without any password. And if you have vpopmail with the 
--auto-learn-passwords option built into than you probably  be ok.
