So you're running a commercial distro, which claims security as it's
main selling point, and you start by removing ssl and crypto :-) ???
Not that ssl is really required at the moment AFAIK, but try adding
libssl-dev to your system. Could be the mysql-backend api requires some
of ssl's calls. I dunno.
When compiling with --with-mysql, -lcrypt is added to the linker options
here (along with some other libraries). So it's the mysql client
libraries that need -lcrypt, lcrypto or lssl (it just depends on what
mysql is linked with on your system).
Make all then ran fine, and i proceeded with the rest of the
instructions.
Did removing the above switches break anything? Because now, it
doesn't look like any mail is being piped into the database. I am
pretty sure i have Postfix setup correctly.
Also, when i started dbmail-lmtpd it made my hard disk go crazy, and
would'nt stop until i killed it!!!
So, you might have triggered some bug in dbmail-lmtp
Try dbmail-smtp for injecting mail, before proceeding to lmtp.
Try setting a debug value in the config file, and mail the syslog output.
Try setting TRACE_LEVEL to 5 in dbmail.conf, and add in
/etc/postfix/master.cnf (or wherever Postfix configuration is on your
system):
dbmail-lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp -v
(notice the -v at the end. This tells postfix/lmtp to be extremely verbose).
Finally, have you tried running dbmail-1.2.4 ??
BTW, What version are you using right now?
