when I ran the RPM it created the database for me again.. and the user
was still there. in mysql.. so I don't think that was the problem.. but
I'm not sure.. I'll try what you have here..

OK so I was looking around last night at my server.. using webmin and
I was updating some sites.
I wanted to remove a table for an old site in the vpopmail
database.... well when I deleted the table it actually deleted the
whole vpopmail database. NO BACKUP... it is a fairly new install...
anyway.. so I did some looking and I seen that the easiest way to get
the vpopmail database back was to just re-install vpopmail.. so I
removed vpopmail and then re-installed it.. I had to create the
vpopmail:vchkpw user and group.. and everything seems to be in
order.. but now I can't connect to the pop server.. or use
squirrelmail.. so does anyone have any ideas how I can fix it without
having to re-install the whole qmailtoaster system..
mysqladmin create vpopmail -uroot -p
mysqladmin -uroot -p reload
mysqladmin -uroot -p refresh
echo "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON vpopmail.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED]
IDENTIFIED BY 'SsEeCcRrEeTt'" | mysql -uroot -p
mysqladmin -uroot -p reload
mysqladmin -uroot -p refresh
Then reinstall vpopmail. You dropped the whole database, and the
vpopmail RPM doesn't create it - that was covered in the installation
script.
