Vpopmail doesn't need that. In the base domain directory for any particular domain, you have .qmail-default, which pipes all mail through vdelviermail, vpopmail's delivery agent, which routes the message to the correct Maildir. If you have .qmail-username-default in the domain directory, then vdelivermail is initially bypassed, and it's handled by qmail-local. Granted, the .qmail-username-default file does pipe the message to vdelivermail, but its presence nullifies the chkuser patch, which checks for local users BEFORE mail is allowed into the queue. That's the only issue for me. Regards, Bill P.S. I noticed that the "reply-to" address for this list does not go back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I don't hit "reply all", it will go back to the sender. It might be easier if reply-to was set to the list itself, as it might help keep threads on the list. _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list (tmda-users@tmda.net) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
