-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello. Is it possible to use ASK from a database mail account? Currently I have my own Linux server which handles all incoming mail. I have postfix as my mta, mutt as my mua and procmail as my filtering agent. Postfix sends the mail to procmail, and etc, I get my mail filtered through ask. Right now I am hosting 4 domains and the users is slowly growing. Right now I have no problems adding accounts to each user and setting up virtual aliases with my postfix virtual aliases configuration. I've been reading however that things can be better managed if instead of adding accounts I use a database system like postgres or mysql. So my question is how can ask work on account such as this? On the surface it seems it would not be able to but I thought I'd ask to be sure. Not all of my users would be interested in using ask much to their risk <smile>. So I figured if only a few want to use it (me included) I could always keep the user account on the system and setup fetchmail to grab mail from localhost and pipe it to procmail, then users grabbing mail remotely could grab it using their user account name instead of the virtual username. Hope this is clear. Thanks. - -- Don't interfere with the stranger's style. Raul A. Gallegos ...
