By ``real user'', I assume that you mean a vpopmail user created with vadduser. If you create .qmail files in a vpopmail domain directory, they will be interpreted by qmail, not vdelivermail. Thus a .qmail-user file overrides the vpopmail user. If .qmail files are not working in a vpopmail domain directory, then that is a qmail problem, not a vpopmail problem. > Perhaps this is a separate issue, but just trying to include all > pertinent info.

They should tell you exactly what is happening (or not happening, as the case may be). -- David Phillips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://david.acz.org/
