Thanks Tom - I created a vpopmail database & user, reconfigured, compiled &
installed vpopmail and enabled mysql, edited the vpopmail.mysql file and
re-configured, compiled & installed qmailadmin all successfully

I then ran the vconvert utility as:

vconvert -c -m

and received an output like:

converting mydomain.com ...done
converting another-domain.com ...done
converting another-domain.com.au ...done

I then restarted all the qmail & vpopmail processes with

qmailctl stop ; qmailctl start
vpopmailctl stop ; vpopmailctl start

qmailadmin still works - all my accounts & forwards etc. are still there.
But there are no tables in the vpopmail database.

Is there something else I need to do or have I done something wrong?

Thanks,

David.
