Hi everyone,

After being thrown into migrating a netscape messaging server 3.5 to <just put
something that holds data in db> i found this little piece of software that
fitted the role perfectly.

I can now say that DBmail works perfectly in this enviroment (well after a few
days that i spent figuring how to migrate users+passwords/emails/etc from
netscape server). We now have around 300 users that use IMAP/pop3/Horde-Imp on
a :

P3 1ghz
768 mb ram
2 x 36 Gb U160 SCSI for mysql in RAID 1
1 x 9 Gb U2W SCSI for system
2 x 100 mbit ethernet

running SuSE 8.1 + apache1/php + mysql 4.0.13 + postfix

One of the problems i came to was the absence of "netscape" type of encryption
for passwords (SHA1) so i googled a bit and came up with a little patch so
users dont even notice the server change. [.attached 2 files, one is a ifelse
addon for auth, and the other comparing function, mhash library is needed]

Anyways great software, hope fixes and features keep on comming :)

Cheers from Slovenia and Croatia,
