Sorry

If I didn't myself clear. When using SMTP AUTH, I run:

/var/qmail-in/bin/qmail-smtpd www.centralserver.com.br \
/var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 2>&1

And even so, I get the error message:
-ERR this user has no $HOME/Maildir

I changed the authtype var, so it would be always SMTP,
but it didn't solve my problem.
