Hi, regular "vadduser" from vpopmail takes care of that. But anyway, one
thing you can do is (when using maildrop in .qmail-default) is add such
code on /etc/maildroprc.
For example:
VHOME=`/Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vuserinfo -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]
`test -d $VHOME/Maildir`
if( $RETURNCODE == 1 )
{
`maildirmake $VHOME/Maildir`
}
That would create the maildir in case the "test" is failed.
Also you can do this to create ( or re-create ) maildirsize:
`test -s "$VHOME/Maildir/maildirsize"`
if ( $RETURNCODE == 1 )
{
`/Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vuserinfo -Q [EMAIL PROTECTED]
`test -s "$VHOME/Maildir/maildirsize"`
if ( $RETURNCODE == 0 )
{
`/bin/chown vpopmail:vchkpw $VHOME/Maildir/maildirsize`
`/bin/chmod 640 $VHOME/Maildir/maildirsize`
}
}
In case you're adding users directly to mysql (that could be your case
since the maildir is missing) know there's in development a vpopmaild
daemon, you could access with php, and access vpopmail api from there.
