Does anyone actually have an LDAP backend working with DBmail ? for
authentication and/or other aspects, im looking at things like postfix
and dbmail and i see alot of things in common.
I guess what im trying to accomplish is being able to accept mail for
multiple "virtual" domains/users and not have any users listed in the
/etc/master.passwd file on a FreeBSD system. id love to centralize the
authorization in one place, right now though postfix cant seem to
deliver mail via dbmail unless the user exists in the passwd file. id
prefer to use LDAP cause i can then integrate other things, but if MySQL
is the only way then so be it. Now mind you i had this all working at
once then ended up loosing a disk, and having to rebuild the mail server
from scratch, so i mjissed something cause now postfix wount deliver
mail unless the user exists in the /etc/master.passwd file. HELP!
