Jake, Please post what you find if you get it to work. I am running into the same thing, if I find something out, I will post what I find as well.

But, I also recompiled vqadmin this morning and I notice it still reports vpopmail as 5.2.1 in its footer. Perhaps I need to recheck all of my configurations again and make sure I installed everything properly. I feel I am close to the problem. Thanks for the suggestions and info, especially when the compilation message clearly states that my query to this list should be ingnored : ). Interesting thing on google, that link doesn't show up until the second page of results for me. First page is everything from slashdot to some other lists that didn't have any info I found useful. Unfortunately I gave up before clicking the little "2" at the bottom. More documentation would be great. I would like to offer help. Sqwebmail is a great webmail system that has been very useful to me and I would enjoy contributing. Is anyone working on this already that I could contact directly?
