I don't yet see using a database easier than flatfiles. I understand that the one-instance data is done well in a database. But also I found this page at the Dovecot wiki, http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/VirtualUserFlatFilesPostfix. I keep rereading it and I think that it tells me that I can do this with flatfiles only. I think its this section, http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/VirtualUserFlatFilesPostfix#Master_Configuration, that tells how to share data with Postfix. Except there's also LMTP which I haven't figured out how to do it yet. For only 3 domains and 30 users its silly to have to run a mysql database. But who knows yet if I an reading this right, and if sharing flatfiles are possible? Its confusing to read and understand. TJ
