I'd recommend looking into the "onchange" functionality of vpopmail rather than hacking vpopmail (modifying vadduser.c isn't sufficient. You'd have to dig out the library function that everything else uses...I did something similar to write a modified .qmail-default when a domain was added from any method available). It's been a while since I looked at the onchange stuff, but it's been there for quite a while and is well documented.

I suppose the problem then would be doing this for new users. I would think that it'd be easy enough to change vadduser.c (or whatever file/program contains the 'stock' file code) to use deliver instead. Let me know if you need a little help with this, and how you make out. I'm presently using dovecot imap, and would like migrate to dovecot's LDA at some point. -- -Eric 'shubes' !DSPAM:4a856c6232711378112263!
