Jeff,
Thanks for the note.
re: authuserdb
Yes. With my current qmail-vpopmail system I use vpopmail's authentication.
That's fine, and I think I understand it since I have it working with
qmail-pop3 and sqwebmail. I want to get rid of qmail and tcpserver, so I'm
building a new server that is "pure" courier mta.
I'm not clear what goes into the "aliases" and ".courier" files. Vpopmail
has something that apparently relies on the qmail virtualhosts file, which
just has entries like
laudeman.com:laudeman.com
and the .qmail-default for each virtual domain
(/home/vpopmail/domains/laudeman.com) says
| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox
I'm just unclear on the magic that makes virtual mailboxes work with
Courier.
Thanks,
Tom.

You want to use a different auth module, like authuserdb or authmysql, to
store and access your account data.
