Your defaultdelivery file must end in a slash for qmail to know that it is a Maildir. Try changing it to ./Maildir/ > Another problem is that I am seeing vchkpw: password fail in > /var/log/maillog as users try to check their mail. > I do not get this when I am checking the test account I set up manually > using vpasswd, but accounts which I attemtped to convert > passwords for using > the vconvert program ( vconvert -c -e <domain> ) are failing.

You are using vconvert incorrectly. The first parameter is what to convert from, and the second is what to convert to. You are trying to convert from cdb to etc format, when you want to do the opposite. You should also try adding the -d parameter for some extra info. Have you tried using qmail-pw2u (http://www.qmail.org/man/man8/qmail-pw2u.html)? > Thanks for all of the help so far. > > Shawn
