Jeff, referencing a table in the database sounds like a great idea. I will give that a try. I am using Postgres so I will probably need to do a bit of recompiling.
When you refer to the local user mapping, are you talking about this entry: local_recipient_maps = $alias_maps unix:passwd.byname Thanks, David ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Brenton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <dbmail@dbmail.org> Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 11:05 AM Subject: Re[2]: [Dbmail] Postfix with IMAP > > 1.
