That would be a good feature.

This would be good too.

vqadmin is targeted at system admins and runs as root.
QmailAdmin for customers and usually runs as the vpopmail user.

Root access in vqadmin is needed for adding and deleting domains.
Also, vqadmin allows a team of system admins to be logged in
at the same time. QmailAdmin, for security, only allows a user
to be logged in once.

If you are a PHP programmer you can re-create the functionality
of vqadmin using the vpopmaild daemon to handle the actual
vpopmail commands with the correct user/permissions.
