Hi yep. i agree, but that means "no vpopmaild for you". I was very happy wirting an ASP app to use it. Beside this, i have three versions of vpopmail:
vpopmail-latest-cvs vpopmail-5.5.3 vpopmail-5.4.10 and the three versions seems to chmod files properly using chmod(tmpbuf1, VPOPMAIL_QMAIL_MODE ) So i guess the problem is elsewhere. Anyway, i do not see a bug report about this so it seems it is something related to my configuration.
