OverviewDbmail is the name of a group of programs that enable the possiblilty of storing and retrieving mail messages from a database. Currently MySQL and PostgreSQL can be used as database backends. Development and support of dbmail is done by IC&S, a Dutch company specialized in Linux development and support. The dbmail developers can be reached through the dbmail mailinglist.
What are the advantages?
ScalabilityDbmail is as scalable as the database system that is used for the mail storage. In theory millions of accounts can be managed using dbmail. One could, for example, run 4 different servers with the pop3 daemon each connecting to the same database (cluster) server.
What are the advantages?
ManageabilityDbmail is based upon a database. Dbmail can be managed by changing settings in the database (f.e. using PHP/Perl/SQL), without needing shell access.
What are the advantages?
SpeedDbmail uses very efficient, database specific queries for retrieving mail information. This is much faster then parsing a filesystem.
What are the advantages?
SecurityDbmail has got nothing to do with the filesystem or interaction with other programs in the Unix environment which need special permissions. Dbmail is as secure as the database it's based upon.
What are the advantages?
Flexibility.Changes on a Dbmail system (adding of users, changing passwords etc.) are effective immediately.
