Hi all, Fantastic tutorial! I've got everything "almost" working. My problem lies in the Maildir area. The directories/files are not being created for any user I create in the mysql tables. I manually created the technologynut.com directory and a user directory beneath it along with manually doing a chown vmail:vmail -R * on them. below is the output of "ls -la /home/vmail/" ====================================== drwxr-xr-x 3 vmail vmail 4096 2006-05-10 10:59 . drwxrwsr-x 7 root staff 4096 2006-05-10 11:23 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 567 2006-05-10 01:17 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 1834 2006-05-10 01:17 .bashrc drwxr-xr-x 3 vmail vmail 4096 2006-05-10 10:59 technologynut.com I'm not seeing any errors in the mail.log regarding directory permissions, failures etc. What area to I need to investigate to get this working properly.

Well I decided to backup and punt. I did the debian sarge install again and then followed the VHCS HowTo. That is now functioning properly. Thanks, Ken
