well your problem cant be vchkpw because you wouldnt be able to login at all if it was the problem. try to see if your vpopmail utilities like vuserinfo etc. are working properly. and there must be a way to get more logging of pop3d somehow :) On Sat, 30 Aug 2003, Max Andersen wrote: > > -

your problem seems to be with your POP3 server. Not directly about vpopmail. Is that UW-IMAP pop3 server? I would suggest trying courier-imap pop3d, I think that would be most widely used with vpopmail and with Maildir format. if still doesnt work then perhaps your imap server cant read some files

well thats not sure that the users have 15 minutes, the cron might work after 10 seconds also. :) So perhaps you can say in maximum 15 minutes the email account would be deleted. and again, I dont know the implications of using vdeololdusers every 15 minutes when you have many many users. Perhaps

Hi, in vpopmail 5.3.24 vpopbull needs the -f email_file parameter even you just want to generate a list of the mail adresses of a domain. Its not really a bug and it is easy to work around but it makes no sense, so maybe it is possible to change to the earlier behavior that you can run vpopbull

Thats something I havent thought of also :) Yet you should wait until the vdeloldusers program is run after you set your account to be deleted. I think the best way is to run it from php by utilizing an external program/script which has setuid. Which double checks the username/password to be sure

Now that's actually an idea I hadnt thought of. You could change the last auth field for the user to some value like 12 months ago in the databasr and then cron the vdeloldusers to delet anyone older than that value. This wouldn't require any special permissions/perl scripts, just a crontab entry

well it is not a good idea to run php setuid, neither to run your web server in your vpopmail user. which would effectively lead to your web server able to delete user directories etc. thus you can use an external perl script which can be invoked from php, which has setuid. or if you prefer a C pr
