I seem to be going backwards with this.  I've decided to completely drop
the mysql vpopmail database, delete the current vpopmail installation,
remove all domain references from qmail control and rcpt host
files,removed domain references from /qmail/usrs/assign & cdb, run
qmail-newu, send killall -HUP to qmail-send, and completely reinstall
vpopmail 5.2.1 from a new source download.

I used the following configure options
./configure  --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60
--enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-clear-passwd=y
--enable-incdir=/usr/include --enable-libdir=/usr/lib --enable-mysql=y
--enable-mysql-replication=y --enable-valias
--enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/local/bin/tcprules
--enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp
--enable-auth-logging=y

I got a warning when running the above configure line -         
mkdir: cannot create directory /home/vpopmail/etc: No such file or dir
configure: warning: maiking a vpopmail etc directory
./configure: /home/vpopmail/etc/lib_deps: No such file or directory
./configure: /home/vpopmail/etc/inc_deps: No such file or directory

It does make and install without error - but..

There is no /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp file, and when I try to add a
test domain I get- Error:Domain does not exist.  When I check the domain
directory, I find the domain was created - but the postmaster account
was not.  When I try to add a user to the domain I also get- Error:
Domain does not exist.

This has become frustrating because I've installed vpopmail several
times with few problems, but now even the basic functions won't work,
let alone the roaming users feature that started this adventure.  Any
ideas on what I've done wrong?

thanks,

regis
