Fatih,
IMail does have the capabilities of using an external DB for user
information (mailboxes are still stored in the users folders). There is a
special dll, ODBCUSER.DLL (used the name as a keyword to search the
Knowledgebase or the manual), designed for this purpose and a few
modifications around for some specialized db applications. If you are using
an ODBC compliant DB, then it should work with your DB. It might mean adding
some new fields to your DB to support those used by IMail.
