vpopmail is a free GPL software package, to provide a way to manage virtual e-mail domains and non /etc/passwd e-mail accounts on qmail mail servers. It was originally developed by Inter7.

Features[]

• Support for 1 to 23 million virtual e-mail domains using a "grow as it goes" balanced directory tree
• Support for 1 to 23 million e-mail users per domain using the same balanced tree structure
• Automates all qmail configurations into scriptable command line programs and documented API library calls
• Automates Unix user/group/other permissions of directories and files
• Supports authenticated relay control of qmail smtp servers
