- how can I configure the toaster with vpopmail mysql backend for users

I am aware of the tools to convert from flat-file to mysql and vice-versa,
but I have thus far failed in converting a .6 toaster install to use
mysql...
 

- compile new vpopmail source with "--enable-auth-module=mysql", but do 
NOT install it.
- setup mysql database per README.mysql, and then 
~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql with the connection info
- from the new source directory, run "./vconvert -c -m", and it will add 
all your information to the new vpopmail tables
- test the new database with "./vuserinfo [EMAIL PROTECTED]" to make sure 
it works.
- make install
- when you recompile the new versions of linked programs like 
qmailadmin, courier-imap and qmail-smtpd, they will start using the 
mysql database.

- the default simscan config in the toaster is to use spam filtering - can I
use this with dspam (which I have working with a .6 toaster) without
conflicts/problems ?
 

I've never setup dspam, but I'm not sure simscan supports it (if it 
needs an smtp harness).

- If I re-install from toaster .6, is there anything special I have to do to
keep my ~vpopmail/domains folder and make it work with .7 ?
 

No.
I appologise if the last question has been asked before, I haven't searched
*that much* for the answer yet... mainly interested in the first two.
Thanks everyone for your time and for a great setup Bill.
 

You're welcome.
