Yes we use it, well sort of. We had some issues on Debian a while back with perl hash compatibility so ended up writing some custom code which wrote to syslog essentially: <ip address> <username> <timestamp>. This allowed us to have a separate script that created a PopB4SMTP database.
We use sendmail as the MTA so don't have the luxury of a databased relay table :) The idea of having dbmail do it by itself is great, and I think should be kept. From memory the default log syntax was not 'easy' to parse to get what we needed (may have changed since); so if the above info could be in a more standard format in the logs that would be great. /Mark > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ilja Booij > Sent: Tuesday, 9 March 2004 4:31 a.m. > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Dbmail-dev] imap/pop before smtp > > Hi, > > I was just cleaning up the SQL directories, and found the > pop_before_smtp.??sql files.
