For example, say you have a web-based application using mysql or postresql already...using the corresponding courier authentication allows the application and the mail system to be tightly coupled. (this is actually why I'm working on getting mysql support working). Yes, the various authentication modules have their pros/cons but to cover them in this type of forum would be a bit too dense. If you have a couple you know you are considering maybe let us know and we can elaborate on those. If you are open to any of them...do some google'ing to learn about them.
Why store mail in a database? There are a number of performance issues with this. I don't think courier supports database implementations of mailboxes. --Tony On Mon, 2002-01-21 at 11:03, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi > > Why would you want to use postgresql or mysql for authentication?
