Hi again, Some of the vqadmin issues mentioned here are making me a little nervous. If you don't mind, I'd like to review my setup so far and ask if there is anything to worry about.
The plan is to handle e-mail for three domains on the server, accessing via IMAP and sometimes Squirrelmail. Two of those domains are live on a server elsewhere now. I created all three virtual domains using vqadmin, and also created e-mail users for each with vqadmin. Then I went into qmail-admin to designate one address from each domain to be the catchall. Next I configured BIND for the domain that is not already live, then pointed the upstream DNS there to make it live. E-mail seems to work fine, sending and receiving. My next step will be to move one of the two live domains over. This is e-mail from a functioning business that cannot be messed up. Now, it sounds like the problems people have experienced with vqadmin happen when they change or remove virtual domains. If that's true, perhaps I am okay. Or should I remove all of the virtual domains, all of the users, and start from scratch with the CLI or QControl? I don't see any documentation on how to remove users or virtual domains via CLI. Can anyone point me to it? If I purchase QControl, will it be able to remove the users and virtual domains created by vqadmin, or might things get worse instead?
