>>Is any other way to add users (more secure, perhaps using useradd -s >>/bin/nologin username) >>which will provide with a home directory just for them to store mails >>with no shell access ? the /bin/nologin would be sufficient to _not_ enable them to have shell access.. They can try to login, the username and password _will_ be correct but they will just get kicked out.. as for the home directory, they don't really need it as a place to store mails. As you mentioned, /var/spool/mail/username would be all that's needed. >>Is it possible (perhaps using usermod) to modify a user with no shell >>access (pop3) to imap user ? Not sure about Imap..
