My saga continues, with a few interruptions, to configure a new mail
server for several domains.
I've had one private post, and read a dozen of more HOWTOs, HOWDONEs,
blogs, and posts on doing this but still haven't had any joy. Not quite
sure what I got configured incorrectly so before doing more work on this
I'll ask if what I'm trying to do is doable.
Postfix:
mydomain being one of the domains I'm hosting.
myhostname will be from one of the hosted domains ... later
no local users (except possibly root)
Dovecot to authentication/authorize
and Deliver to ... well ... deliver :-)
Dovecot:
users looked up by domain in /var/mail/vhosts/%d/passwd (?)
mail placed (after mail sieve) placed in /var/mail/vhosts/$d/$u/Maildir/
Most of the HOWTOs and friends are using PostgreSQL, LDAP, or MySQL but
I'd like to hold off on this until I feel more comfortable and informed
on how Dovecot, Deliver, and Postfix work together.
So am I out to lunch? I think right now it is I'm confused on what/how
userdb and passdb are used. (This is my next RTFM on the list.)
Thanks for any help, suggestions, or clue-sticks!
