So I created a .qmail file in a test user directory, devemails, and I put in that the line: |/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' /usr/local/vpopmail/domains/freedomvoice.com/jeremiah/Maildir/ But it does not deliver the email to my user when I email the devemails account. -----Original Message----- From: Ken Jones [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 11:51 AM To: vchkpw@inter7.com Subject: Re: [vchkpw] Using vdelivermail If you know the path to the maildir you can use that instead like: /home/vpopmail/domains/somedomain/someuser/Maildir/ then the vdelivermail line That will keep it out of the queue since qmail-local will just drop it into the Maildir/new directory.
