Is it possible to configure vpopmail (i.e. vadduser) and, by extension, qmailadmin to create this structure automatically when I new user is added?
i.e. Does vpopmail support the concept of a skel directory like the adduser command uses /etc/skel ?
If you just need a particular directory structure, you can modify vpopmail.c's list of directories to create for each user:
const char *dirnames[] = {"Maildir", "Maildir/new", "Maildir/cur",
"Maildir/tmp"};You'll have to manually add code before:
/* set permissions on the user's dir */
r_chown(".", uid, gid);To create the symlink from INBOX to ../Maildir.
There is a patch on SourceForge to add skel directory support to vpopmail, but we decided not to include it since it uses a system call to 'cp' to copy the files -- it would be better to do the copying within vpopmail itself.
