A symbolic link is the only thing that prevents you from recompiling vpopmail. The path is not only used in qmail files, but also "hard coded" into various vpopmai components, so I'd either stick with the old path and use it for new things too (plus s-link of course), or recompile vpopmail, which takes more effort, albeit "old paths" don't have to be adjusted, the sym-link will preserve the compatibility in that case too. -- Peter
