With MySQL, it is reasonably easy to implement, some select queries
is
all you need but it would be kinda cool if one could use the
functions
with cdb too, especially as there is a vpopmail extension to PHP now
(although I got some doubts whether it is such a wise thing to run
a complete Apache/PHP environment under vpopmail:vchkpw but...) as I
imagine that many people would like to code such stuff in PHP.

Ah ok.

I haven't really had a deeper look into the .qmail stuff but as you
can't
have anymore than one user per email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED] is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]), it shouldn't be such a problem to use them for
autoreponders/vacation given qmail doesn't go crazy if there's .qmail
AND
a Maildir for an user.
This would also help the admins that need to fix broken installations
etc cause they knew that all not plain Maildir stuff is in
domain.com/
and not somewhere down the way in the users messes...
While we're on it, what about forwarders to multiple email addresses,
so something like a small mailinglist? I've had several cases in the
past where users deliberately needed this and I had to set it up by
hand cause I didn't want to give them ezmlm access...
