I'm using the process gleaned from Bill's Qmail Toaster, with one exception -- the new version of vpopmail 5.4.5.

I altered the configuration to put vpopmail in /var/vpopmail, changed the vpopmail user's home dir to /var/vpopmail, and even edited the conf-vpopmail file that came out of the chkuser patch so that it looks for /var/vpopmail instead of /home/vpopmail.

Viewing and receiving email works just fine, but when I try to connect to port 25 or use SMTP in any way, I get the following error in my qmail SMTP log:

@4000000040e177f301bf2a9c tcpserver: status: 1/20
@4000000040e177f301c0c0dc tcpserver: pid 25605 from 210.101.50.44
@4000000040e177f301c197b4 tcpserver: warning: dropping connection, unable to read /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb: file does not exist
@4000000040e177f301c3d204 tcpserver: end 25605 status 28416


Of course, it all goes away with a symlink, but that's not the real way to go about solving things, not to mention it'll be a bit of a performance hit to query a symbolic link every time there's an SMTP connection.

Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks!
