Qmail together with vpopmail - Maildir question


Hi Guys,

I am setting up qmail, vpopmail and courier-imap and I have gotten most of them to work. The only outstanding problem I have is that Qmail saves any incoming emails to the local users Mailbox (/home/test/Mailbox) but vpopmail reads emails from Maildir (/home/vpopmail/domains/test/). Am I missing something stupidily obvious? I have read so many various outdated guides that my head is completely messed up.

I thought the whole point with qmail was that it used Maildir? Why on earth is it saving everything to Mailbox (aka mbox?). How do I switch it from saving emails to Maildir (which I thought was its native format?).

Let me know if you need any specific config files from me.




Best Regards

Fredrik
