trying desperately to get dbma working with postfix, but
the online 
instructions are vague in many places.

quick question.

when
 I install from packages in debian squeeze,
my daemon name is 
dbmail-lmtpd NOT
dbmail-lmtp.

in the config instruction on 
postfix you state that
I should add:

dbmail-lmtp     unix    -       -       n       -       -       lmtp

into master.cf

and

virtual_transport = dbmail-lmtp:<host>:<port>

presumably it should look like this in my file:
virtual_transport = dbmail-lmtp:localhost:24

The question is whether the problem might be that
the should read:

dbmail-lmtpd     unix    -       -       n       -       -       lmtp

and

virtual_transport = dbmail-lmtpd:localhost:24

respectively?

Also, the section where you state I should put:

user     = <SQL-username>
password = <SQL-password>
hosts    = <SQL-host>
dbname   = <SQL-database>
query    = SELECT DISTINCT 1  FROM dbmail_aliases WHERE alias= '%s';

into 
/etc/postfix/sql-virtual_mailbox_maps.cf

if I am using a postgresql database, is very confusing to say the least.
At least I think that is what I am supposed to do.

You have no examples on how that info is to be supplied.  Should it look
something like this?

user     = dbmail         # or should be be user postgres?
password =                #no password used
hosts    = localhost
dbname   = dbmail
query    = SELECT DISTINCT 1  FROM dbmail_aliases WHERE alias= '%s';

sorry to bother.
