Thanks for releasing 2.0 Sam. 

I ran the same ./configure line as my previous versions and it went off 
without a hitch. 

I love sqwebamil. 

I do have a question about sqwebmail-pass files.  Are they are the only way 
to allow users to change their own password?  Is there a way to use the 
vpasswd master file only and allow users to change their own password? 

I use qmailadmin and know that when I change a password from qmailadmin, 
which uses vpopmail that I have never gotten it to successfully change the 
users sqwebmail-pass password.  So I decided to do away with the 
sqwebmail-pass files and I changed over to the vpasswd master files moving 
each encrypted password by hand the same day I changed operating systems (to 
OpenBSD 2.8).  Now I am not so sure I want this since it seems that unless I 
use sqwebmail-pass files the option to change the password via sqwebmail 
doesn't show up in preferences. 


I believe the correct way is to add 

 --enable-webpass=vpopmail  Change passwords via vpopmail 

to my ./configure.  However the last time I tried that qmailadmin's changes 
to existing account's passwords were not acknoledged.  It could have been me 
as I am somewhat slow and frequently forget to keep track of what I am 
doing. 

this is my current configure line.  So is adding the above, the only way to 
alow users to change their password, and should that allow qmailadmin to 
make changes to the sqwebmail-pass? 

#!/bin/sh
#install-sqwebmail
./configure --enable-https --enable-webpass=no --without-authpwd 
 --without-authshadow --without-authpam --without-authuserdb 
 --without-authldap --without-authdaemon --with-authvchkpw 
 --enable-imagedir=/var/www/webs/mail.updegrove.net/htdocs/images 
 --enable-mimetypes=/var/www/conf/mime.types 
 --with-cachedir=/var/cache/sqwebmail --with-cacheowner=vpopmail --with-db=db 
 --with-userdb=/etc/userdb --with-formdata --without-authlib-man 
 --enable-utf7-folder-encoding 
 --with-gmakedatprog=/usr/local/libexec/sqwebmail/gmakedatprog 
 --with-authdaemonvar=/usr/local/share/sqwebmail/authdaemon 
 --sysconfdir=/usr/local/share/sqwebmail; gmake configure-check; gmake; gmake 
check; gmake install-strip; gmake install-configure; chown vpopmail.vchkpw 
/var/www/cgi-bin/sqwebmail; chmod 6555 /var/www/cgi-bin/sqwebmail 


Thanks again in advance
