Re: Mailserver with accounts seperated from unix-accounts



Hi

Perhaps my description about what I am looking for was a little bit
wrong. My problem is not authentification, I would like to have the
complete account-database in an sql-database (or ldap). Cyrus for
example can authenticate agains nearly everything but I still need to
create accounts with cyradm. Postfix for example is able to get
username-mapping-informations out of mysql, for example blub@foo.com
mapped to local unix user blubf. But I have not yet heard of an
possibility which makes it possible to have really all account
informations in a sql or ldap-database. But I currently don't know what
is possible with postfix and courier. I would like to add new users to
my mail-system with an sql-statement like insert into accounts
(username, passwort) values......  Does anybody know if this is
currently possible with open source software or should I better use for
example cyrus and let it authenticate agains mysql or something similar
(for example with pam) and create all accounts by hand with cyradm?
