I have been mulling over this for sometime.  I still don't feel comfortable 
putting the development versions into production; too many frequent changes 
that might be necessary.  So I am still with the stable version of vpopmail 
with a working vconvert.
However, there is an interesting script in the source under "contrib" 
directory called addusers.pl, that manually adds a list of users, one by 
one, to a domain you specify.  The catch is that it requires cleartext 
passwords.  Can "vadduser" work with encrypted passwords?
Another problem is how to backup a list of users with their passwords from 
the MySQL db?  I plan to use vconvert to create vpasswd files on a regular 
basis, but how can one do that with the development vpopmail?  Does anybody 
have a (perl?) script that can read the db table and write out a neat 
little vpasswd file?  I think that it is do-able, but am too pressed with 
other stuff.
