qmailctl cdb && qmailctl start && sleep 2s && systemctl start dovecot && toaststat
2) In place conversion*
# qmailctl stop && systemctl stop dovecot
# yum install -y yum-utils
# yum-config-manager --enable qmt-current
# yum reinstall qmail qmailadmin dovecot* ezmlm* vpopmail vqadmin

  vpopamil was compiled with this option
