- complex usage reports and traffic details
- postfix also uses DB, and again the virtuals are a view constructed
based on other business rules.
etc etc.
In some sense, DBMail is the starting point for a much more usable and
functional system of mail handling. You should not just focus on if it
will be faster (although, making sure it won't be slower is important).
What a great post. You should write a whitepaper!. I was thinking it might
be possible to write triggers to manipulate the postfix text files but I
did not know you could have postfix read the database directly that's great.
Have you thought of using a non IMAP client for employees which taps into
the database directly? I was thinking that might be good way to go internal
employees and it would bypass whatever IMAP slowness there might be.
