# cvm-vmailmgr(8)

vmailmgr virtual user validation module

## NAME

cvm-vmailmgr - vmailmgr virtual user validation module

## SYNOPSIS

cvm-vmailmgr

## CREDENTIALS

Pass phrase

## DESCRIPTION

This module validates credentials using accounts in a vmailmgr system. It does domain lookups the same way qmail would to determine what system account and virtual account to use.

## CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

- **QMAIL\_ROOT (optional)**

  The root directory under which all the qmail configuration files are expected to be found. Defaults to "/var/qmail", which is the normal qmail install path.

- **VMAILMGR\_PWFILE (optional)**

  The relative path to the password file located in the virtual domain's home directory. Defaults to "passwd.cdb".

- **VMAILMGR\_DEFAULT (optional)**

  The name of the default or "catch-all" account to look up if no match is found for the virtual account name. Defaults to "+", and is only used in lookup mode.
