-Using DBMail with QMail
-=======================
-
-Thanks to Edward Allen for this information. Note that this information
-is quite old. If you have more recent information on QMail please join
-the dev mailing list or file a bug with the project.
-
-
-1. Prerequisites
-
- * A DBMail installation
- * A QMail installation
-
-2. Add the domain you wish to receive mail for to
- /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts. For example, you can add
-
- example.com
-
- (yes, only that :) ) to /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts
-
-3. Add delivery information to /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains:
-
- example.com:dbmail
-
- where 'dbmail' is the dbmail system user you chose. If the file
- virtualdomains doesn't exist you have to create it.
-
-4. Make sure the file /var/qmail/control/locals exists and is empty.
-
-5. Now create a dot-qmail file in the dbmail home directory called
- .qmail-default that contains the next single line:
-
- |/usr/local/sbin/dbmail-smtp -d ${RECIPIENT:7}
-
- The pipe tells qmail to pipe the email through a command. The
- ${RECIPIENT:7} takes the environment variable $RECIPIENT and chops off
- the first seven characters. This is needed because the value of
- RECIPIENT is dbmail-the_e-mail_address (for example:
- dbmail-john@example.com or dbmail-frank@example.com).
-
- If your dbmail user is not dbmail, you'll need to change the 7 to
- the number of characters in your dbmail user's name plus one (the
- dash '-' after the dbmail user's name). So, if the dbmail user's
- name you chose is joe, your .qmail-default file should contain:
-
- |/usr/local/sbin/dbmail-smtp -d ${RECIPIENT:4}
-
- For more information about dot-qmail files please check the
- man page of dot-qmail, you can check it online at:
- http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/dot-qmail.html. Pay special
- attention to the section 'Extension Addresses'.
-
-
-Note: Right now Qmail (the most recent version of Qmail at the time of
- this writing is netqmail-1.05) has no support for the protocol LMTP,
- so you can't use dbmail-lmtp with Qmail in an "easy" way (as you do
- with Postfix).
