I can not replicate the problem. vmkpasswd is setting the ownership.
In the cdb module
int make_vpasswd_cdb(char *domain)
chown(vpasswd_cdb_file, uid, gid);
chown(vpasswd_lock_file, uid, gid);
chown(vpasswd_file, uid, gid);
Which version of vpopmail are you using? 4.9.8-1 and 4.9.9 don't
show this behavior on my Linux machine.
