Peter, I know nothing of strace(). The conversion seems to want to find it at the old path of ~vpopmail/domains/someonesdomain.com/ and it gladly converts if it finds the information there. But of course all of the paths are wrong
Since you obviously know the 'big picture' better than I do maybe you can tell me if this will work. What if I recreate the postmaster account, move the user directories (besides postmaster) and then import user records into the mysql.vpopmail.vpopmail table. Will that work? Is it missing anything? I figure the recreation of postmaster will create the necessary control and assign files and the copy and import into mysql will handle the individual users under the domain. What do you think? What vpopmail needs is a big picture like Dan has put together for qmail. I think that would be a very valuable resource. Have one that shows the schematic of qmail/vpopmail using .cdb and then one showing qmail/vpopmail using mysql. That would be most informative.
