 * I have installed the Eternal Database Authentication Reloaded plugin onto my 
   WordPress site. I wanted WordPress to authenticate using a database of existing
   users. however when I try to get to the site, I am confronted with an error that
   says: Table “testdb.mailbox” doesn’t exist. I have rechecked the settings and
   as far as I can tell they are all correct. I’m not even sure why it would be 
   looking at testdb. (this was an non production db for WordPress) Under settings-
   External db settings, I have filled in the fields as follows:
 * Database type: MySQL
    Host: localhost name: vmail (name of external database)
 * I did not include the user name and pass on this forum but user does have privileges
   on this database
 * I am able to deactivate the plugin in order to run normally, but I would much
   prefer to use this other database as I am trying to create a single registration
   point
