You've said nothing about what authentication module you're using, but let me guess: it's vchkpw (vpopmail), and it's version 5.2.1 or earlier, correct? If so, this is a vpopmail bug, which results in intermittent login failures. Upgrade to vpopmail 5.2.2 or later, and then recompile sqwebmail to make it link against the new libvpopmail. > One more question is that I found out that when I sent a mail from > external say, hotmail, to my sqwebmail email account in the qmail > server, virus mails were able to be blocked and quarantined but for > users who sent the mail from sqwebmail to sqwebmail itself the virus > mails can pass through.

You can customise this in any way you like to submit mails to your MTA in whatever way you like. Right now, I'd guess that qmail and your (unnamed) virus scanner are set up in such a way so that mails submitted over SMTP are scanned, but mails submitted locally are not. So you need to work out what command-line command to give to submit a mail locally and have it scanned (which is off-topic for this list), and then update sendit.sh to use that command.
