bad.  use www.lifewithqmail.org and then if you want to add vpopmail to the 
mix, read vpopmail's INSTALL file.  It's very easy to install.

You just contradicted yourself.  You say things are working yet two lines 
below it's not working.

that's REALLY old.  Try the latest version.  If I were you, I would remove 
everything you've installed, follow www.lifewithqmail.org, and then following 
the INSTALL file of vpopmail.
