I recently installed tmda-cgi and I tried to get the "URL Confirmation"

---------------------------------------------
tmda-cgi cannot continue because a terminal error has been encountered.

Error: Confirm Failed
Cause: Old-style URL is not compatible with virtual users
Additional: Running in system-wide mode.
Attempted to use incompatible URL with euid 1, egid 0.

Recommend: Contact this message's sender by an alternate means and inform
them of this error, or try confirming your message using an alternate
method.

This is an installation with vpopmail-5.2.1, tmda-0.91 and tmda-cgi-0.12
with the patch patch-0.12-20031208.

These variables _are_ set:

CGI_URL = "https://mypath-to-tmda-cgi";
CGI_VIRTUALUSER = 1

The confirmation url format looks ok, for a virtual user, I think:

https://server/path/to/tmda-cgi/tmda.cgi?uid&email&cookie

The permissions on tmda.cgi is:

-rws--s--x 1 root root

The OS is Debian woody (a linux vserver) with Python 2.1.3.

Any idea what could be wrong? The usual tmda email confirmation works
fine, I can also login and check pending messages with tmda.cgi, but it
would be nice to have URL based confirmation working also :-)

Please try the following patch for the file stubs/vpopmail1.py and see if it solves your problem:
