Hmmm...I like the idea of PostfixAdmin, but I don't suppose anyone knows |
| 2 |
if it'll work with PostgreSQL? Being an Oracle DBA by day, I can relate |
| 3 |
much more to PG than to MySQL. I've converted my SquirrelMail to PG |
| 4 |
(with web help) and have been MySQL-free ever since. |

Anyone? |

Ditch the Gentoo Virtual How-to and use PostfixAdmin if you decide to go |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
the Postfix route. Web interface for admin, domain admin, and user self |
| 26 |
admin. I switched to it about two years ago and have been really happy. |

Anything .maildir/ format is going to be trivial to move. Most Postfix |
| 38 |
virtual stuff uses some form of the following format. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
/var/vmail/$domain/$user |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
The above is configurable though you might need to tweaks things a bit |
| 43 |
if you were using /var/vmail/$user@$domain.com/ or other formats. In any |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
case 10 minutes of scripting would handle that as well. |
