Hi Andrew !! I guess You did not read the whole story :-) It's not about shutting down deliveries. It's not even about compiling vpopmail... It's a comparison of having a vpopmail SQL configfile vs. compiled in SQL config (vmysql.h) Please read the story, I'm tired... bye... > Original Me

a simple solution is just configure vpopmail to connect to a HOSTNAME (even if localhost). then the only thing you need to do is add a line to your /etc/hosts or modify your DNS To let vpopmail read a config file is nothing but waste =d0Mi= > Original Message - > Date: 14-Feb-20

That depends on how remote it is and how much traffic you expect. You might want to look into MySQL replication at a certain point. That way for most of your queries you can do them locally (on the box), and only upatable queries will make their way to the main server. That's what I do.. MySQL r

That might be feasable.. if vpopmail ran as a daemon. But vpopmail gets called on by qmail. So if vpopmail had a config file it could damper it's performance (on slower systems, quite heavily) because every single time vpopmail was run it would have to read that config file. Remember that vpopma

What would it take for this to be a configurable parameter instead of a compiled-in parameter? In other words, would it be possible to add a config file, read at startup, from, say vpopmail/etc or qmail/control or similar? It seems to me that this would make a lot more sense than requiring the ser
