(clug-talk) Suggestions/Ideas for mail

Sun, 20 Oct 2002 16:53:52 -0700

So after many years of using/configuring various MTA's and MUA's, and not being completely satisfied, I beleive  I have to try and find a long term, permanent solution. So as a database guy/developer my first requirement is for a database backend, preferably Mysql or Postgresql.
 
1: Database backend for mail boxes, account info, filtering rules etc (assuming this is possible)
 
2: Platform/client independant. So a web based front end, probably in through IMAP and not POP so that the folders/filtering are done on the server and sent to the client.
 
So far, the only thing that looks close is the Postfix-Cyrus-Mysql combination and although I have used all three before, not in this joint-configuration so if anyone has this setup, or has used/configured it, I would be interested in talking with you.
 
 
I also ran CommunigatePro for a while and it was GREAT and gave me everything I needed, but I was not that familiar with its configuration at first and so quickly became a well-used open-relay for a few days....around 50,000 spam emails sent out......I am so ashamed.
 
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
