Did you ever think about how can your pop3/imap servers would know about
your vpopmail configuration?
I mean those programs you are trying to use are designed to work with
system accounts...Plus its doubtful that your imap/pop3 server supports
maildir format.
Try to set your pop3 service something like this, changing the paths of
course (found from google searc of "qmail-pop3d xinetd vchkpw")
service pop3
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
server_args = foo.bar.com /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
log_type = FILE /var/log/xinetd.log
log_on_success = HOST
log_on_failure = HOST RECORD
}
