1. Stop services
qmailctl stop && systemctl stop dovecot
2. Install and enable higher priority QMT MD repo, and Install QMT MD packages.
CentOS 7/QMT only
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/qmt-md.repo https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmtoaster/mirrorlist/master/qmt-md-centos7.repo
yum-config-manager --enable qmt-md-current
wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmtoaster/scripts/master/dovecot.repo
yum makecache
yum clean all
yum update dovecot qmail ezmlm ezmlm-cgi vpopmail qmailadmin vqadmin
yum install dovecot-mysql
CentOS 8/QMT
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/qmt-md.repo https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmtoaster/mirrorlist/master/qmt-md-centos8.repo
yum-config-manager --enable qmt-md-testing
wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmtoaster/scripts/master/dovecot.repo
yum makecache
yum clean all
yum update dovecot qmail ezmlm ezmlm-cgi vpopmail qmailadmin vqadmin
yum install dovecot-mysql
Make sure packages to be installed are designated '.md'.
3. Create new vpopmail table in vpopmail database (script) Download here
#!/bin/sh
# This script converts the vpopmail db traditionally used by QMT with domain
# tables (domain_tld) to the vpopmail table containing many domains (md).
# In addition to this vpopmail db conversion appropriate replacement packages
# must be installed to interact with the converted vpopmail db, specifically,
# CentOS 7/8 pkgs designated with 'md'. The conversion was necessary not only
# for Dovecot's dsync utility to utilize commands like `doveadm user '*'` which
# fails with Dovecot's vpopmail driver but because Dovecot is dropping support
# for the vpopmail driver.

read -s -p "Enter your MySQL DB management password: " passwd
echo ""
if [ "$passwd" == "" ];
then
echo "You must enter the MySQL DB management password"
exit 0
fi

echo -e "[client]\nuser=root\npassword='$MYSQLPW'\nhost=localhost" > $credfile
mysql --defaults-extra-file=$credfile -e "use vpopmail"
[ "$?" != "0" ] && echo "Password error, exiting..." && exit 1

# domain table names, example: table whitehorsetc.com becomes whitehorsetc_com. Vpopmail utilities will not allow
# one to create a domain name with an underscore even though RFC allows it. So, we can safely replace all domain
# table name underscores (_) with periods or dots (.) (below, 'domain_name') in our conversion for entry into the
# new vpopmail many domains table.

fi
done
4. Start services
qmailctl start && systemctl start dovecot
All updated packages should be using the new db and dovecot the sql driver (below).
The file here should now exist in the dovecot directory '/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext'
and the new sql driver in file '/etc/dovecot/toaster.conf' (below).
New sql user/password db driver (green)
passdb {
driver = sql
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
}
userdb {
driver = sql
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
}
Replaces
Old vpopmail user/password db driver (red)
passdb {
args = cache_key=%u%r webmail=127.0.0.1
driver = vpopmail
}
userdb {
args = cache_key=%u quota_template=quota_rule=*:backend=%q
driver = vpopmail
}
