You're right, that was one of the problems.
Another was that Postfix is running chrooted and therefor could not connect to mysql. Error was: postfix/cleanup[12345]: warning: connect to mysql server inet:localhost: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111) Although I have "hosts = inet:localhost" in all mysql* config files (which should be the defautl anyway) it still seems to use the socket...
To make the socket accessible you could either disable chrooting in the master.cf or, as I did it, set a hardlink: ln /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Anyone knows if the link could be security problem?
Cheers, Marcel

Hi!
I have it running with the stable distribution.
All the setup is the same as in the HOWTO. The only diference is in the authentication, you have to use pwcheck_pam instead of pwcheck_standard
First do an /etc/init.d/pwcheck stop before changing to the pam version, because pwcheck will refuse to start
pwcheck_pam has memory leaks and grows to insane memory size, I restart it every hour.
# update-alternatives --display pwcheck pwcheck - status is manual. link currently points to /usr/sbin/pwcheck_pam /usr/sbin/pwcheck_standard - priority 30 /usr/sbin/pwcheck_pam - priority 20 Current `best' version is /usr/sbin/pwcheck_standard. #
Now I'm evaluating to migrate this setup to a courier imap and the postfix's virtual transport using the JAMM http://jamm.sourceforge.net/

Hi folks
I'm trying to get web-cyradm running with postfix, cyrus and mysql. Luc de Louw' pretty detailed Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO on http://www.delouw.ch/linux/postfix.phtml is unfortunaetlly very redhat centered. Since there's also the PAM and sasl stuff involved, debugging is somewhat difficult
Has anyone managed to get this combo running under Debian and could shed some light on it?
TIA, Marcel
