What version of vpopmail?  A quick check of the current rc1 release 
(and other recent releases) appears to include code to properly handle 
# in a valias file.

Try 5.2.2 from http://vpopmail.sf.net/.  It includes lots of bug 
fixes to the 5.2.1 release.

Also, 5.4.0 should be stable within a week.  Both properly handle '#' 
in .qmail files and valias table entries.

[vchkpw] Disabling an account in vpopmail (using valias)

2004-01-02 Thread John Councilman
I am aware that in a standard dot-qmail file, you can disable an account 
by putting a # in the file, but the same does not seem to work with 
valias.  I was trying to put a # in valias_line, and vpopmail tries to 
deliver to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Does anyone have any ideas on how to disable an account?  What about cat 
- /dev/null?

Seems like a valias-bug...

You just want the mail to disappear?
Use this:
|exit 99

- or you can bounce all with:
|exit 100
