Hello *,

I'm new here but I've been using courier for 10 years. Mostly courier-imap, 
but a few years ago I've also used courier-mta. Then I moved to a mixed setup 
with Postfix+courier-imap+MySQL.

Now I have a new server to configure (Ubuntu 10.04 server) and I'm quite 
annoyed by the postfix mess and the sasl hell, not to mention the back and 
forth of messages between daemons only to apply spam filters, that kind of 
setup is too muddled for my taste. So I feel like going back to my origins and 
use courier-mta instead.

However when I used courier-mta back then I did not need virtual mailboxes 
(though I used them anyway with authuserdb) nor more than one domain; now 
things are different.

Here is what I need to do, please head me in the direction of the best setup 
(sql backend?). I don't need a detailed howto, I'm able to figure out most 
things with google, I only need some hint about the setup.

0. I am the sysadmin, my customer is the user of the system and related 
mailboxes.
1. users (a few identified people working @ my customer) MUST be able to create 
their own mailboxes through some sort of web interface, no shell access. It's 
ok if they are not able to create new domains, I can do that once for all.
2. users are all in charge for all the domains, so they MUST NOT be limited 
about what domains they can manage.
3. users MUST be able to reset passwords from the web interface, and MUST be 
able to change their password in the webmail
4. passwords MUST NOT be stored in plaintext
5. incoming mail MUST be filtered with common spam filters (sa, others?) and 
marked as spam/deleted based on spam rating received.
6. users must be able to mark messages as spam/ham (sa-learn), (maybe by 
moving those messages in a dedicated folder?)
7. some users share a common mailbox (info@....). They SHOULD see unread 
messages as unread, even when another user has already read that same messages 
from a different client, but if a user trashes a message, that message should 
go to trash for all other users too (I don't even know if this is possible, my 
customer says he's this feature right now in gmail, but I'd never heard about 
that before).

Thanks in advance for any hint.
Lucio.
