Hi,

I have noticed the following. If I pop my mail when my mailbox is empty I get 
the following in the syslog file:

Oct 24 11:42:41 spoke vpopmail[31487]: vchkpw: system password fail 
iain:203.45.48.204

This occurs in both 4.9.9 and 5.0 beta

The following is more of a wishlist than a bug report.

There are several impediments to creating quality binary packages for 
vpopmail. The biggest is the lack of a config file. Some features should be 
able to be changed after installation. e.g. relay-clear-minutes, roaming 
users, default domain name.

The biggest problem with having no config file is that it is impossible to 
create binary packages with mysql / postgress support as the host, etc has to 
be compiled into the binaries.

The debian maintainer of vpopmail (Ondrej Sury <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) added 
some patches to use a config file but they don't seem to have been included 
upstream.

Lastly, having man pages in html format is problematic for distributions like 
debian. If I or someone else submits man pages in Docbook format will they be 
incorporated upstream?

Anyway thanks for writing such great software and keep up the good work.

cheers, Iain.
