I do this pretty regularly with no ill effect The only thing I have noticed is that the user's maildir wont get created until their 1st message arrives This can cause a problem if the user tries to login to qmailadmin before receiving any mail, as qmailadmin spits an error because it tries to write a lock file to the non-existent maildir There was a discussion a while back on the qmailadmin list about the the pros/cons of creating accounts directly in SQL... maybe have a look at this thread : http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg03509.html Michael.
