Hello Mark, MR> I am creating this dbmail server for a company who has over 100 MR> domains. My objective is to have [EMAIL PROTECTED] go to the same mail MR> box as [EMAIL PROTECTED] as [EMAIL PROTECTED] ect... In the past this MR> was achieved with a Sendmail config. I do not like Sendmail and am MR> using Postfix. Because i do not have an entry in the alias table for MR> every [EMAIL PROTECTED] address DBMail rejects email. I do not want to add MR> all domains to the alias table. I have searched Google but with no MR> avail. You guys are my last hope!!
If your postfix is configured to use the same database as your dbmail (MySQL or Postgres), you can use the dbmail alias table to determine if an address is deliverable. dbmail then uses the same alias table to determine which mailbox to put it in. I use postfix this way, along with a "transport table" that determines what domains it can receive for AND how to handle them. Someone here posted a message last year about how to do this in Postgres with a "view" of the database, looking just at the domain portion of entries in the aforementioned dbmail alias table. In my case, I use the same table for the postfix "mydestination" and "transport_map" functions, in his, dbmail was the default transport, and the view of the alias table simply served to let postfix know it was OK to receive mail for a particular domain. -- Best regards, Jeff mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
