DId you use the QMAILQUEUE patch for qmail? If so does the program that QMAILQUEUE points to exist?

RE: [vchkpw] Using tcpserver/mysql
That would keep tcpserver from reading the hash. However, vchkpw will still go about happily updating this file on every popauth even though nothing is reading it. Seems like a waste of CPU cycles to me. Also, I WANT tcpserver to read this file so that I can use it for blocking mail from abusive hosts, etc. I just do not want vchkpw to update it on every popauth. Paul J.

He work well with Vpopmail ? Why do you think 'dot-forward' is a 'better way' to create aliases? 'dot-forward' is there for compatibility reasons, for those who switch from a .forward architecture to qmail. At least dot-forward allows you to have delivery instructions placed in .forward (or any other) files and to be precise: the very same delivery instructions as those allowed in dot-qmail files.
