No, I followed the install but obviously changed folders to fit my current installation. I didn't install all the DJB's tools mentioned in the guide, since I already had them. | /Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox In what folder the vpopmail user lies doesn't change anything. As long as you call the binaries properly, at their real location. For example: it's important to notice to change the brand new created conf-vpopmail once applied the chkuser patch. conf-mysql as well. Bill's document for his toaster is completely fine. It just doens't fit already running installations. But it doesn't have to. Nonetheless, it's a very good idea having that large patch with all that funcionalities together. That's why I used it to upgrade. It's a great work. I don't think my problem lies on the way I installed it, maybe there's something wrong in the patch. > > At 09:59 AM 4/22/2004, you wrote: > >On Thu, 2004-04-22 at 14:53, Jeff Koch wrote: > > > We use the patch with mysql and it works fine.
