I have DBmail working with XMail. I have a mailproc.tab file with this line in it.
"external" "0" "10" "/var/MailRoot/for_imap.sh" "@@FILE" "@@RCPT" "@@FROM" Here is the forimap.sh file #!/bin/sh perl -pi -e 's/\r\n/\n/g' $1 /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-smtp -d $2 < $1 It was pretty easy to get it working. Just make sure that you setup the account on dbmail before you put the mailproc.tab out in the test users directory. I would also make an alias such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] firstname.lastname I use dbmailadministrator to configure dbmail via web page. "it works" is about all that I can say for it. not the most userfriendly, although there may be a new version out. I upgraded to the latest stable release of dbmail yesterday, hoping for more stability. The version 2.0.7 had some werid memory leaks or something. Every week I would have to kill all of the processes and restart it. here is my startup script ../etc/init.d/dbmail #!/bin/sh sleep 5 /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-imapd -f /etc/dbmail.conf here are some of the changes to the ./etc/dbmail.conf file NCHILDREN=20 # default number of LMTP handlers (each is a process) MAXCHILDREN=10 # max. number of LMTP handlers MINSPARECHILDREN=2 MAXSPARECHILDREN=4 MAXCONNECTS=100 # the maximum number of connections a default childs makes TIMEOUT=300 # the Give me a shout if you need some more help.
