Yes, vpopmail is compiled with it (I've been using mysql support for a long time already, nonetheless I recompiled it again, but yes , --enable-auth-module=mysql was in config.log). Vpopmail works fine, everything works except vdelivermail at .qmail-defaut. If I use maildrop instead in .qmail-default, and in the maildroprc file vdelivermail then works just fine. So I have no idea why vdelivermail refuses to call mysql in .qmail-default. This is my non-working .qmail-default: | /Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox And this is the one, in another domain which does (but no chkuser is triggered): |/usr/bin/maildrop -w 90 ,in the /etc/maildroprc script, here's the line calling vdelivermail: VPOP="| /Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox" This domain calling maildrop then vdelivermail works (but chkuser doesn't). > At 03:38 AM 4/22/2004, you wrote: > >Hi all, > >I've just upgraded (again) my qmail installation, in an attempt to cut > >out spam trying random email addresses to my domains, using > >chkuser-0.6.mysql.patch. > >I've followed the whole instalation procedure, compiled successfully > >qmail with the patches. > >The problem I found is, when using inside .qmail-default, maildrop, the > >mails are delivered but is not triggered the chkuser patch. > >And if I use inside .qmail-default, vdelivermail, all mails are > >rejected, with "550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name (#5.1.1 - > >chkusr)" . > >Now, looking at mysql access logs, vdelivermail is not looking at mysql > >to see whether the user exists or not, therefore all emails (included > >the ones to valid users) are rejected. > > > >Has anyone tried this patch and had similar problem? > > > >Thanks for your help. > > Best Regards, > > Jeff Koch, Intersessions > >
