Peter.. I have recompied vpopmail and got the following configuration output. After the vpopmail authentication, I can see the modification date of "/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb" gets changed. So, there seeems to be no problem with the database update. The command output of "/home/vpopmail/bin/clearopensmtp 2>&1 > /dev/null ; $?" gives 0 (null) . And the tcp.smtp.tmp.xxx files are no more generated, probably this was caused by the failure of opening the wrong tcp.smtp.cdb yesterday. Thank you for your valuable help. Danke schon..

I don't think a "run every 40 minutes" cron is the primary reason for "every 10 minutes created" files. But OTOH the file names look like those clearopensmtp uses. I'd suggest you: 1.) Tell us the _complete_ configure line used for compiling vpopmail, for us being able to figure out what .cdb file clearopensmtp tries to re-create. 2.) run 'clearopensmtp' on command line and tell us potential output and the result of 'clearopensmtp 2>&1 >/dev/null; echo $?' for us being able to see if clearopensmtp states it ran successfully. -- Peter
