hi..
I need your help to solve my problem
I've setup qmail,daemontools,ucspi,vpopmail,qmailadmin,sqwebmail.
Everything is ok with virtuall domains which i've defined in
vpopmail.Virtual users on virtuals domains can send and recieve mail
easily.But my local users(the users who have account in /etc/passwd) can't
login to mailserver.(i've tested it through outlook it tells me that either
my username or pass is wrong)when i check /var/maillog,i see a line
containing
Jul 22 11:23:24 www vpopmail[4258]: vchkpw: vpopmail user not found testuser@:194.165.0.37

I think qmail doesn't look at
/etc/passwd file to verify local users.(by the way i want qmail to deliver
local users mails to /var/spool/mail,so i set the defaultdelivery file like
:/var/spool/mail/.
now what do you think?what should I do to make the qmail check local users
validity through /etc/passwd
if anything is not clear pls let me know to explain more.
Thank you.

guys pls!!any advice!!

Does qmail use salsauthd for authentication?

My qmail works correctly. But there's one program you need to install: checkpassword.

thanks i got it worked.
BTW I use vchkpw instead of checkpassword.

Not important which program for passwords to use, it's important you've got it working
