I have been doing a bit of reading, and I am a bit confused. Is there any advantage to having your postfix user info, and spamassassin inform stored in a mysql database as opposed to just using the /etc/passwd file for users,
If all your users can log in to a shell prompt and manipulate their preferences and bayes, then there's no advantage. Otherwise it makes it easier to serve up a web interface and let people manage their preferences.
I don't know about the performance. So far I haven't been able to get spamd to be able to find the SQL storage module.
