Hi, I run a small mail server with about 40 domains. Right now I use exim_dbmbuild to create the dbm files of the different domain mailer tables, including dbm files for the local and relay domains. I however would like to migrate all of this to a MySQL setup (at least I think I want that ;-)). Reason for this is that I now run a system wide setting for spam and virus scanning and that this is not really user friendly as I want to give the users a choice in if they want spam and virus scanning per user. And I also would like to switch from creating actual users on the system to switch that to only MySQL users. Which probably also makes it more wise to switch to maildir format and something like Courier.
With the dbm process I can do stuff like this: mylocalalias: localuser1,localuser2,[EMAIL PROTECTED],localuser3 *: localuser1 And mail will be delivered to all the local and remote addresses and everything else will be dropped in the localuser1 mailbox. I've looked at a couple of MySQL examples but they seem to usually limit the localuser drop to 1 user so [EMAIL PROTECTED] will always only be dropped into a localuser1 mailbox. Which is not the behaviour I want. However I assume that - flexible as exim is - I can also get the behaviour I have with a MySQL setup As I would like to get my new setup done properly at once I hope someone can assist me in making the right choices. Or better yet if somebody want to share their setup with me would be even better as it makes no sense for me to engineer what already has been engineered before and has proven to work. Assuming I could create a MySQL table which can contain several local users and several remote users for the same alias. Would it be wise to create single records for each local / remote user for the same alias? Or just put everything in one record? Or split the record in a localusers part and a remote user part and use different routers for them? So if somebody who has already made a setup like I want and would like to share their culprits, setup of whatever they want to share that would be greatly appreciated.
