JE> Is this a forum for general questions regarding setting up DBMail JE> and getting it to work with Postfix ?
Maybe Eelco can add the text of my messages on the subject, updated to include the PostgreSQL information posted by others, as a "Postfix readme" in the hopefully-soon-to-arrive RC4, and also in the CVS. They cover just about all of the postfix+dbmail integration, except for how to compile in SQL support to Postfix.

Well either JE> I am dumb or I've done something very wrong ..... I don't think you're dumb - even with the init scripts posted here a few months ago, I have been unable to get dbmail-pop3d and dbmail-imapd to start at boot. They are set to be one of the last things started, so the network is operational when they start (important because the MySQL server is not running on localhost), but they always fail. If I log in and execute the scripts, they start just fine. This is with Mandrake 8.0 and 8.1 servers... -- Jeff Brenton President, Engineered Software Products, Inc http://espi.com Questionable web page: http://dididahdahdidit.com Liberalism grants you the freedom to advocate any idea*. * Please see http://www.dididahdahdidit.com/except.php for a current list of exceptions
