In the last day I have totally overhauled the installation and I now have a much "cleaner" installation. I totally cleaned up the qmail install and tried to proceed with vpopmail again, but am not getting any mail. The system was originally using /home system accounts for all users, with the Mailbox mailbox format. I used the script at http://www.qmail.org/convert-and-create to convert the mailboxes to Maildir format, and have the Maildir directories set up in /usr/local/vopmail/domains/mydom/usr/Maildir . Now when I send a mail to the user, instead of going into that Maildir, a Maildir is created in the user's /home directory and the mail is delivered there. My /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery file contains ./Maildir . Should I change that to the full path to the Maildir under the vpopmail/domains/usr directory, or... ? Another problem is that I am seeing vchkpw: password fail in /var/log/maillog as users try to check their mail. I do not get this when I am checking the test account I set up manually using vpasswd, but accounts which I attemtped to convert passwords for using the vconvert program ( vconvert -c -e <domain> ) are failing. Does this require mysql support? I'm not sure I specified mysql support when installing vpopmail... anything I can do to verify whether I need it or not and whether or not it is actually working or if I should reinstall? Thanks for all of the help so far. Shawn
