Please, do yourself a favour and _copy / paste_ it, Don't try to retype it. The backticks are important, as well as the backslash. Your output tells - either you've done something wrong when executing the command line and $HOME was interpreted by the shell before qmail-popup was called - or there's something _really_ wrong with your vchkpw as it sets $HOME to home of root If you're unsure about having copied the command line correctly save the following code into /tmp/foobar <--------------------> #!/bin/sh echo "$HOME/Maildir" <--------------------> do 'chmod 755 /tmp/foobar' and run #>qmail-popup `hostname -f` /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /tmp/foobar instead of the one given first. This will _in any case_ prevent $HOME from being evaluated to early. -- Peter
