This really should be put in the FAQ. Ken, how about adding this: Question: How do I get Courier-IMAP use vpopmail's "roaming users"? Answer: Follow these steps 1. Make sure vpopmail is compiled with --enable-roaming-users=y 2. Courier-IMAP doesn't detect roaming users in the vpopmail library correctly, so force it by doing something like this just before compiling: export CFLAGS="-DHAVE_OPEN_SMTP_RELAY" 3. compile courier-imap with --without-authdaemon --with-authvchkpw 4. Make sure you run your imap server as the same user as your pop server (so open-smtp and tcp.smtp have the same ownership). man couriertcpd for details, but you will change /usr/lib/courier- imap/libexec/imapd.rc something like this: Change this line: /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ To: /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ -user=vpopmail -group=vchkpw \ Regards, Bill Shupp -------- END HERE --------- El mar, 24-09-2002 a las 17:09, rm escribió: > After several months of getting by with sqwebmail for remote users, > we've decided to add the "enable roaming users" option.
