Zitat von Frank Bonnet <f.bon...@esiee.fr>:
Hello
I have to setup a "virtual" postfix server and I wonder what would
be the best / most efficient choice for the DB backend ?
The server will be a small one supporting approx 1000 mailboxes
the machine is a "virtual one" hosted at OVH (France) running Ubuntu
10.4 LTS
with 4 Gb of dedicated RAM and 50 Gb of disk space.
I've never setup a virtual postfix server so "gurus" advices
would be very welcome.
Thanks a lot
Focus on the management tools you will use for managing the accounts
and choose the db accordingly. Postfix is not very "taxing" regarding
db access so for some 1000 mailboxes any reliable db is sufficient. If
using a "network" database limit the number of client connections with
proxymap if you intend to run a lott of smtpd processes.
Regards
Andreas
the DB server will be "local" to the postfix server, I plan to install
the server
then install webmin to delegate some tasks to a "few experienced" admin.
( few tasks = create or destroy email accounts )
