For the folks who don't know what tmail is, it's a mail delivery program (sendmail calls it to stuff mail into mailboxes).  It comes from the folks who created uw-imap, which is the imap that vimap is based on.

It can be found inside this file:
ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap-utils.tar.Z

Sigh... and to actually make it *compile*, you have to:
  1) unpack imap-2001a.tar.Z
  2) unpack imap-utils.tar.Z
  3) replace the Makefile in the tmail directory with this one:

Now, how do I get sendmail to ignore the password file?

It rejects my test email messages before it even calls tmail.

vimap usually relies on the mail delivery module that comes with linuxconf and the mailconf module.

Maybe by looking at this module you can figure out how the mailer "virtual" handles this.
