appologies. I misstated my intention. I was trying to install vpopmail
to USE mysql (mysql, itself, is installed and running just fine)
I've had one person suggest that adding " --user-quota " gets 
rid of the complaint (it does).   

This does still point to something wonky in the config. I'd 
like to hunt it down, but it would help if someone could 
tell me what the -lz is about.

It's a kludge, though, and I'm not sure what the -lz is about, 
or why it's being included. (it claims to be about compression).
