I tried to reopen this old thread. Quick question about creating accounts with SQL queries. If you can create accounts using a PHP, PERL interface by using SQL queries, then it would be assumed that you will also remove accounts using this method. By removing a user's record will vpopmail somehow automagically remove the maildir for the user at some time, or does any custom interface need to take into account the need to clean up the filesystem?

It would take additional work.

You could create another table of users scheduled for deletion, and have a cron job running as root that queried that table hourly to delete the mail for that user. Or, just use the existing table and set the users flags to a special value (one that bounces mail, doesn't allow POP/IMAP/SMTP/Webmail access, etc.). Have your cron job search for those records, delete the files for the user and then delete the record.
