I'm trying to set up a new web/mail/etc. rack server to replace my
current aging rack rental and I've hit a roadblock: vpopmail segfaults
when I use it.
The new machine is an AMD64 but we're treating it as an x86. I have
completely sane use flags and cflags... going for stable rather than
hotrod. The other big difference from my current server is that the
hosting company put a gentoo-hardened kernel on there... don't know if
that's a problem.
I have put in a bug (149267) on the vopopmail issue, but I don't know if
I can wait for that to get fixed. So, the question is what road do I take?
My current setup is qmail, vpopmail, qmail-scanner, sa, clam,
courier-imap, ezmlm, etc. I'm more or less familiar with this setup,
though it still confounds me at times. I was toying with switching to
postfix, but I was put off by the fact that one has to do their own
mysql wrangling to manage their domains... vpopmail seemed like less work.
I'm also concerned about being able to migrate all my domains' existing
mail. Vpopmail creates a directory under /var with all the domains and
all it's users. I suppose I could probably do the postfix configuration
to point each virtual user to the directory under vpopmail instead of
the usual /home dir.
I was told that any .maildir mta will be fine with the existing mail and
the names of its files.... hope that's the case!
So, I'd love to hear any advice or examples. How do you all manage your
virtual email?
Thanks,
Ben
