An in place conversion has proven problematic for us with getting acurate dir_control information into MySQL. It seems starting with empty tables and loading all domain and user information via vadddomain and vadduser works just fine though.

Is LDAP support of Vpopmail mature enough for a large

Has anyone used it succesfully in such a case?
From README.ldap :
Using vpopmail with LDAP is not very common.
The LDAP modules are functional, but because it not as popular as using
CDB or MySQL auth systems, you should be wary of implementing the LDAP
system on a production server.
I'm using Vpopmail+LDAP for about 2 years, with no problems.
But, for older versions of Vpopmail, I had to do some nasty things in
order to make it compile correctly.
From README.mysql :
Using vpopmail with MySQL is becoming increasingly popular. The code is well tested and can be considered to be just as stable as the default CDB authentication system.

And you will have much more flexibility. I did choose LDAP because of this performance, but if I had to make the choice again, I would choose mysql instead.
