Hi all.

Sorry for this noise, but I'm pulling my hair out here.

I've been trying to set up Postfix to handle a handful of domains
and virtual mailboxex/users. I've got all that I need installed ok
being Postfix, SASL2 and courier IMAP. I actually want pop3, but I
thought I'd change that over once I got the system working. Auth is
handled through SASL2 out of a MySQL db.

I'm not very comfortable with mail servers and thought it worth asking
if there is perhaps a better suite of programs that I could consider
using? As it is only a small number of actual mailboxes involved, I
wouldn't be too against having system accounts for each. So it would
come down to virtual domains, being the deciding factor.

I've been following online guides for it, hence the IMAP involvement,
and as I'm not well versed, am pretty stuck now that it hasn't quite
gone according to plan.

Do I really need all the mentioned servers, just to handle a small
number of domains and a small number of mailboxes taking the mail, via
some fixed addresses, with one per domain acting as a catch-all?

I've sorted out the web and database serving side of things, which I am
pleased about, as a novice, but have really fallen over on the email
side. It's happening on a Sparc64, if that makes any difference on
choice of software.

I would REALLY appreciate any pointers that anybody might offer.

TIA.
