Well, unfortunately, that did not work.  I got the latest CGI and MD5 
modules, compiled them and installed them, but I'm still getting the 
error.  Is Neomail just unable to read my master.passwd file?  Is there 
any way to set up a separate password file that is not encrypted and 
not related to the actual login passwords?  I know that is not 
extremely good for security, but I have my reasons for doing so.  Can 
it be done, and if so, how?  I would like to do that as a last resort 
if I can't get the normal way to work.

Thanks,

Tony

 Try to reinstall MD5 and CGI modules, and after that - reinstall
neomail 

 itself once again, I had similar problems ; this reinstall thingie
solved 

 my problem.
