Hello everyone,
I recently installed DBMail 1.2.7 on a test system with MySQL 4 & Exim 4
and think DBMail is very good! I hope to deploy it on a production
system soon, and while the DBMail list archive was useful in providing
some answers to my questions, it also created new questions! :)
Does anybody reading this use DBMail 2.x in a production environment?
One would assume 2.x can do things 1.x cannot and it is better, faster,
etc.
I am wary to go for 2.x at this stage given it is still a release
candidate, therefore would it be better to roll out 1.2.7 now, and
upgrade to 2.x when it is past RC stage, or is it stable enough to bite
the bullet and go with 2.x now?
Does anyone have any stories on how well do 1.2.7 and 2.x have scaled
for them? I would assume past a certain point it becomes necessary to
cluster database servers, and until I get time to try out MySQL cluster
(part of MySQL server 4.1), everything I have read about it indicates it
should be transparent to DBMail. Does anybody use MySQL cluster?
Will either version of DBMail support IMAP IDLE (RFC 2177)?
Will either version support public/shared folders?
There was a post about TLS & SSL capability not being in DBMail (yet).
Has much progress been made on proper implementation, or is it something
that won't be around for a while? I would rather the real deal than go
for a hack using stunnel.
Is it likely that Leif Jackson's patch for IMAP SORT will be merged into
the 2.x codebase, or is a UTF-8 based solution going to be added at some
point?
Thank you in advance,
Kelv
