Hi Sean, I want to use dbMail (http://dbmail.org/) to store and handle Mailaccounts in a DB. dbMail is using libzdb (http://www.tildeslash.com/libzdb) which provides the database-driver, but only for Oracle, PostgreSQL, sqLite and mySQL. So I have to implement a Firebird-Driver for libzdb and it is written in C. If you have got any ideas how to connect a mail transport agent with Firebird in an other way, please let me know. By the way, I am working in a team of Delphi Developers, myself I am mostly working on the web-parts of our applications using PHP to connect directly to Firebird.
