update 2
ok...now the domain has been created apparently...
vdominfo
domain: year26.org
uid: 89
gid: 89
dir: /var/vpopmail/domains/year26.org
users: 0
???????????
update 3
ok so here is what i had to do to make it work. I recompiled vpopmail with
USE="-mysql" emerge vpopmail
but when i ran vdominfo it showed my old domain. When i tried to delete it using vdeldomain i got errors about the domain not existing. So I went to /var/vpopmail/domains and it had nothing in it.
So I created a dir matching my old domain and chown'd to vpopmail:vpopmail and then ran vdeldomain and it deleted it. Now i can add domains and users without any problems.
