This document is historical. We adopted Dovecot, Postfix and ViMbAdmin for mail server.

IMAP and POP servers

courier-authlib

To use courier-authlib against vpopmail MySQL authentication:

/usr/local/etc/authlib/authmysqlrc
MYSQL_SERVER            localhost
MYSQL_USERNAME          ...
MYSQL_PASSWORD          ...
MYSQL_PORT              0
MYSQL_OPT               0
MYSQL_DATABASE          vpopmail
MYSQL_USER_TABLE        vpopmail
MYSQL_CRYPT_PWFIELD pw_passwd
MYSQL_UID_FIELD     1189
MYSQL_GID_FIELD     1189
MYSQL_LOGIN_FIELD   CONCAT(pw_name, '@', pw_domain)
MYSQL_HOME_FIELD    pw_dir
MYSQL_NAME_FIELD    pw_gecos

Utilities

qmail-autoresponder

If invoked from vpopmail instead vmailmgr, it doesn't contain From: header.

Installation tips:

To grant minimal privileges to a qmailresponder MySQL account
GRANT SELECT,DELETE,INSERT ON vpopmail.response TO 'qmailresponder'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '...';
GRANT SELECT ON vpopmail.autoresponder TO 'qmailresponder'@'localhost';
Add to my.cnf
