Thank-you Enda.

I am setting up auth from this doc
http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README_authlib.html#userdbprimer
under the heading *Large virtual domain farm*

Once I have this running I shall then try with LDAP - I think it might
be better for me not to bite off more than I can chew.

In the aforementioned URL it instructs one to create maildirs for users
in each domain.  I tried the below but it failed.  I have reread the
instructions several times (& copied and pasted these) and always get
the same error message:


# su - vmail
$ pwd
/home/vmail
$ mkdir -p domains/simontest.com
$ mkdir domains/simontest.com/simon

$ maildirmake domains/simontest.com/simon

maildirmake: domains/simontest.com/simon: File exists

I removed the directories and started again but replacing the . with a -
 incase a programme could not handle a . in the directory name:

$ rm -rf domains/simontest.com/

$ mkdir -p domains/simontest-com

$ mkdir domains/simontest-com/simon

$ maildirmake domains/simontest-com/simon/
maildirmake: domains/simontest-com/simon/: File exists

The maildirmake options are:
Usage: maildirmake [ options ] maildir

Perhaps the instructions would rather that I use this because it worked,
but just because it created the dir, does not mean that it is the
correct conf.

$ mkdir -p domains/simontest-com
$ maildirmake domains/simontest.com/simon

$ ls domains/simonloewen.com/simon
cur new tmp
