Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (HowtoForge)

[Posted March 5, 2009 by cook]

HowtoForge presents a tutorial on setting up a mail server with virtual domains. "This document describes how to install a Postfix mail server that is based on virtual users and domains, i.e. users and domains that are in a MySQL database. I'll also demonstrate the installation and configuration of Courier (Courier-POP3, Courier-IMAP), so that Courier can authenticate against the same MySQL database Postfix uses."
