I have building a email server using qmail+vpopmail+courier-imap
After i set up the server
i have found that the tcpserver always shown as <defunct> even i reboot the system it still shown as <defunct>
I have try to telnet port 110 with my domain it is ok to connect it but port 25 cant since tcpserver is in zombie
I dont have any idea why the tcpserver always shown as <defunct> |

What does /etc/init.d/svscan start says? Also, keep in mind, that 2 weeks ago courier-authlib dropped support for vpopmail, so u won't be able to authenticate your vpopmail users anymore. I moved on to Postfix-based setup and I recommend u do the same too. Take a look at this topic.

The hard part would be to add the domains and the users in the database. The rest is easy to do. |

Google it. I've never done that. I had just setup my mail server with qmail + vpopmail and had only 2 e-mail accounts, when I had to move to Postfix, so it was an easy job  |
