This is a long-standing bug in the last two released versions of vpopmail, first reported early last year. Unfortunately the maintainers haven't seen fit to roll up a version without this bug even though it's been (apparently) fixed in the codebase since last fall. Grab the codebase version or revert to 5.4.23. That's the only honest answer... you don't need to roll back the MySQL tables. *.24 had some issue, unfortunately it's now been so long since a vpopmail release that I don't remember what it was. I'm starting to think someone needs to fork vpopmail (if possible), since the maintainers appear to have no interest in vpopmail anymore. I'd have done it already, pending a study of the license, if I had better coding abilities. As an example, also lapsed is the support in courier-imap for vpopmail because the vpopmail maintainers have stopped submitting or signing off on the vpopmail authentication code in courier-authdaemon. Sorry there isn't better news. -- -- Cheers, Steve !DSPAM:486bf92832351489015702!
