[SAtalk] running with vpopmail

[Morten Rønseth]

Hi all,

The spamd options specify the following (amongst other things):

-v, --vpopmail

Enable vpopmail config. If specified with with -u set to the vpopmail user, this allows spamd to lookup/create user_prefs in the vpopmail user's own maildir. This option is useful for vpopmail virtual users who do not have an entry in the system /etc/passwd file.

If specified without -u, then it allows every mail account on a vpopmail virtual domain setup to have their own user-customizable spamassassin preferences, assuming they have their own home directory set.

What exactly does "assuming they have their own home directory set" mean here? Does every user have to have a unix login account and a home directory for the last pasrt to have an effect?


Cheers,
