Hi-

I'm using Qmail 1.03 & vpopmail 4.9.6-1 on OpenBSD 2.8 -stable. 
Everything works as expected & I'm a happy camper. Of course, there 
is one problem, or I wouldn't be writing...

I have virtualized our primary domain so shell users won't be sending 
their passwords all over the net in cleartext. This is fine with 5 
out of 6 consultants, but one guy used telnet & Pine extensively on 
our old system & really wants that functionality. I'm thinking it'll 
be fine, just set him up for ssh & Mutt & set a symlink for 
/home/vpopmail/domains/ourdomain.com/user/Maildir in /home/user. Of 
course, he gets a permission denied error. I know the virtual user 
Maildir has to be owned by vpopmail:vchkpw. Is this a Catch-22, or 
does anybody know of a workaround for this?

TIA,
-Kit
