I meant this solution (by Matt Brookings): -------------------------------- Try this: cat > ~vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf << __EOF__ Server: Disable = True; __EOF__ -------------------------------- ++jukka Hi Jukka, I know, that is what I tried. It did not work on either 5.4.28 or 5.4.30. Anyway, using Safecat as mentioned above seems to work, though I have had one email where the message body disappeared.... I will spend a week testing it and see what happens. Thanks for your help. Do you know if using safecat like this is "legit"? Thanks, Paul. !DSPAM:4b2b465e32712052218027!
