Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier And MySQL

[ariek]

Thanx a lot for this great howto. Because it is based on Debian, I was wondering which parts are different when using this guide for Ubuntu 5.10.

I don't think you have to change a lot of things. If the Ubuntu Postfix is of version 2.2.x (find out by running

postconf -d | grep mail_version

), then you have to change the format of the .cf files, as pointed out here: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/sho...ostfix+version

You can also find details about the changed format here: http://postfixwiki.org/index.php?tit...IMAP_and_MySQL

Thanx for your quick response. I've just put on my dancing shoes, and just started the cut & paste job.
After having finished the complete installation, I got the following error when restarting clamav-deamon:
/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon: line 71: log_daemon_msg: command not found
...done.
/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon: line 60: log_daemon_msg: command not found

I have tried to access my newly created imap account with Evolution, but there seems to be a verification problem. My mail.info tells me:
Dec 12 17:25:34 server05 imaplogin: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:10.0.0.110]


What have I done wrong here?

Question: Do you still have to repackage/compile Postfix when using Ubuntu? There are so many plugins that come with the distro.

You should have Courier IMAP installed. The log looks as if you have another IMAP server installed (otherwise the string "courier" would appear...).

I think so because the quota patch is not part of the official Postfix sources.
