I consider "mail" to be separate from "login" as far as the services go that my server provides to my users. Ergo: every mail account is a virtual account in Courier's terms. I store mail accounts in /var/mail/accounts/$symbolic_account_name, with $symbolic_account_name usually (but not mandatorily) being "$firstname-$lastname". Every mail account's directory is a virtual home dir, i.e. it contains a "Maildir" and other stuff like an optional ".mailfilter" file. If you're wondering what the extra "accounts" component in my mail accounts path is about, in /var/mail/lists/$symbolic_list_name I have mailing lists, so I didn't want to use /var/mail directly. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
