I'm working on adding users directly to the mysql tables. It appears from the list archive that this is reasonable, but I'm not certain if there's any catch?

I've played around with it a bit, and I can't see any particular problems with my few tests. Has anyone actually done this? Is it better to let vchkpw create the maildir, or should I create them?

I'm using PHP to insert the users into the tables, so I can have it create the maildirs with the correct permissions, but I'd rather skip it to reduce the execution time.

Thanks for any tips. I'm new to vpopmail and want to avoid as many potential problems as possible. (I have installed vqregister and the new qmailadmin, and while they'll be very helpful, they won't give me the control I need in linking with our members database when adding new pop accounts).
