hi, i've some new ideas. i've decided to post them here for disscussion bevore i start to code.
my startigpoint was that it would be nice to have really everyting in a database without the need of any binary C program creating the databaseentries. what i do not want (because i siply don't like it) is: - a C cgi - a webserver running at the vpop userid one major thing to get this is allready done: valias. the next should be domains and accounts. this could be done by vdelivermail. when vdelivermail ever comes over a domain or an account that exists in the database but the directories are missing it simply creates them - qmail style - by calling vadddomain and/or vadduser. vadddomain and vadduser need a new commandline option. this option "checks" the maildir structure and corrects respectively creates it, if necessary. all this could be done with out breaking any existing fuctionality. autorespond could easily be modified not to use flat files but a database. as said, valias, needed for autoresponders allready exists. perhaps autorespond should be comletely rewritten an get as vautorespond part of vpopmail. my problem is, that i've only rudimentary knowledge of ezmlm. i've no idea how to place all necessary information in a database nor how to create needed directories on the fly. i know, that everything is driven by .qmail files and could be easily done by valias but ezmlm binaries trust on a certain directorystructure afaik. any suggestions? best regards Matthias Henze [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use PGP!! http://www.mhcsoftware.de/MatthiasHenze.asc - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MHC SoftWare GmbH voice: +49-(0)9533-92006-0 Fichtera 17 fax: +49-(0)9533-92006-6 96274 Itzgrund/Germany e-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
