For getting vpopmail to work you don't need the knowledge about internal workings. For getting this knowledge to see if and how to improve your setup: read the qmail documentation, it's all covered there. > 12. How to use vchkpw with qmail-pop3d server What's your problem with this point? You're using INETD?

Are you using mysql functionality in vpopmail? If yes: what's the concrete problem? If no: what's your interest in #13? > 14. Good luck What's the problem with this? I mean ... you cited it, so you seem to have a problem with it?! To sum it up: you wrote you've trouble _configuring_ vpopmail. configuring like the initial './configure' before compiling or configuring like 'configure the rest of my system to get the mail delivery and pop3-fetch working'? If first problem is getting the mail stored in vpopmail mail directories: remove the domain(s) you want to be processed through vpopmail from '/var/qmail/control/locals'. Everything up there will be threaded as _local_ like 'local qmail system' by qmail. When setting up the domains using vpopmail command interface (vadddomain) it will be correctly inserted into 'virtualdomains' (and rcpthosts) where it belongs (beside that appropriate entries in '/var/qmail/users/' will be made). -- Pit
