Can't help you there. I will eventually use postfix and it seems that |
22 |
web-cyradm can do a catchall address. You just create an email id and |
23 |
that mark that email ID as a catchall address. (Haven't tested it yet.. |
24 |
but that's what it says it does) |

I see. I read that overall, parsing the queries to mysql can really bog |
34 |
down the server anyway. So, it'll be a "to be looked at" once I get |
35 |
things up and running and when time permits. |

I agree. One thing's for certain, we really need more documentation on |
42 |
this setup. (cyrus-imap that is) |
43 |
|
44 |
Oh.. by the way, I found out how to create the user@×××××××.com. Both |
45 |
the directory structure and the login id. |
46 |
|
47 |
eg: |
48 |
Domain = Domain1 |
49 |
Email = User1@×××××××.com |
50 |
Username = user1@×××××××.com |
51 |
|
52 |
Mail Spool = /var/spool/imap/domain/domain1.com/user/user1 |
53 |

Seems like it was a 'limitation' of cyradm. When I saw how you added the |
55 |
user directly via cyradm's cli, I gave it a try and saw that the |
56 |
directories are created properly and all that jazz. |
57 |
|
58 |
Also, seems like there _is_ a patch for this. But not sure why it wasn't |
59 |
accepted upstream. The patch is dated April 2004. |

Simple 1 line patch. May break for users |

http://www.web-cyradm.org/pipermail/web-cyradm/2004-April/017369.html |
63 |
and |
64 |
Will not break if config'ed properly. |
