Hello,
Sounds like postfix isn't handing the mail off to dbmail;
the mail(1) program reads local mbox files, so if your mail
shows up there, then it's not in the dbmail's database.
This was another question to be asked. I had assumed that mailbox should
be empty,
and all mails directly saved in the database.
Since all my incoming mails sit in the mailbox, therefore I am in
trouble !:(.
Are you running a public mail server, eg. using a dynamic
dns service, and accepting mail for a domain? If so, postfix
should be setup with a dbmail transport (in transports file) for
that domain (see install file for specifics), and you need to
define that transport in master.cf. Also make sure you're using
the transports file (it may be commented out of main.cf by
default .. never used a Suse distro) and that you've run
"postmap transport".
I'm using a dynamic ip from dyndns.org, but my server is on my own
computer at home.
After Keith's message, I had re-checked master.cf, dbmail.conf, and main.cf.
Everything looks normal to me.
If you still don't have it working (and maybe have reviewed the
install instructions again), post the relative sections from your
postfix config files to the list here.
I think this will be a better method! I'll include the active parts of
the configuration files at
the end of this message.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I'm new to the list, and dbmail.
I tried to configure my system with Suse 9.1, postfix, and mysql 4.0.18.
I have a dynamic ip address.
I followed the required steps in the INSTALL document.
Everything looks normal, but my incoming mails (both from local, and
remote)
don't go to the database.
I can reach them with mail or pine.
What should I do?
