might be true... but the wrong database for me.
If somebody sit down and write an extension to libzdb - say the sqlrelay
interface, will it work with dbmail?
Yes, in principle. But doing a sqlrelay extension to libzdb is unwise,
if at all possible. It is probably fairly easy to write an extension for
libzdb for a specific backend, like oracle, ingres or db2. Libzdb
specifies a very small interface with very well defined behaviour.
Someone well versed in for example db2's C-api could probably write such
an extension in a day or two, and test/debug it in a week.
SQLRelay brins it's own C, C++, Perl, etc. API. So, my intention was to
try to implement SQLRelay's C-API into linzdb...
As I said, I am not a coder. So I only can try. My favourite is DB2 in
combination with perl. In my environment, amavisd-new, policyd v2
(cluebringer) and SpamAssassin (with some small modifications) are
running against DB2. Running dbmail with DB2 would be thruth of my
dreams :-)
Unfortunately, I can't give you a business case. I can give you a
finacial donation, but...
Regards,
Uwe
