Please disregard this...I found the problem. I had initially installed
the "devel" (5.5) version of vpopmail from FreeBSD ports, but uninstalled
it when I ran into some minor anomolies with qmail-admin and installed
5.4.27. When I did that, I forgot to add
WITH_PASSWD= YES
to the ports Makefile. I reinstalled it and it looks fine now.

I have an odd problem, that I just discovered on a server that I need to put
into production tomorrow.
I have a mixture of unix system users AND vpopmail virtual users on the same
server, but for a reason I cannot figure out, I can authenticate vpopmail
users fine for POP3 or IMAP, but I can NOT authenticate system users for
POP3. I am running qmail's stock pop3d with vchkpw like this:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -l 0 -R -H 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
SERVERNAME /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
I can authenticate both types of users fine against IMAP, using the standard
courier-imap startup script (not using tcpserver).
I get this error in the maillog (telnet localhost 110):
vchkpw-webmail: vpopmail user not found someuser@:127.0.0.1
It's like vchkpw is ONLY trying to authenticate vpopmail users.
I could have sworn I had this going a while back, but since then the only
changes I can think of is the addition of a bunch of users/assign entries for
the vpopmail virtual domains. Does there need to be a "catchall" entry there
for system users that just use normal delivery to $HOME ?
Here are the authdaemonrc auth modules:
authmodulelist="authvchkpw authpam"
Both /etc/pam.d/imap and /etc/pam.d/pop3 have this entry:
auth required pam_unix.so no_warn try_first_pass
Ideas?
