I believe that using --enable-webpass=vpopmail is telling sqwebmail to use
whatever authentication that vpopmail is using. If Im wrong on this someone
let
me know. I compiled with this option to get it to use mysql for
authentication but
I still had to change passwords through command line or qmailadmin. To get
the
password boxes to come up in sqwebmail you have to compile
with --enable-webpass=yes which
tells sqwebmail to use its own authentication seperate from vpopmail. This
allows users to
set different passwords for vpopmail and sqwebmail. If you get a chance
check out what we've done and if your interested let me know. I sent you a
username password and link
