I think you're SOL Bryan until someone adds mssql driver support to Dovecot. If you are a C veteran and know mssql at a development level, you could possibly grab the source for one of the other sql drivers and rewrite it for mssql duty. The current sql driver source files are: driver-mysql.c driver-pgsql.c driver-sqlite.c Source files for stable Dovecot are available here: http://www.dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.11.tar.gz Good luck. -- Stan
