Hello, over the next few days I want to deploy ASSP in my  
environment.  I have SMTP with postfix, and IMAP/POP with Dovecot.   
Both are backed by MySql for user authentication.

Postfix uses TLS.  I use port 25, 465, and 587.  I can force all users  
to port 587 for SMTP, and use 25 exclusively for non local SMTP.  I  
would use standard ports for SSL/TLS.

Currently this is working for me, with no ASSP but I am not using any  
anti spam at all in postfix, it is wide open, a plain email server, no  
greylist, no AV, no DNSBL.

I would like to use the 1.x branch.

My thoughts are to have ASSP sit in front of all this, as a true  
proxy, for all relevant ports.  I do want user sent emails to also  
pass through ASSP, so ASSP can learn about their sending habits as well.

What I am currently not able to locate in the way of docs, is how to  
connect ASSP to MySql, which is where postfx and dovecot get the user  
and pass for auth from.  I do not at all want to maintain a text file  
of local users, there is just too much flux in users coming and going,  
and I do not want to manage something that works hands off as it is now.

Can I get some dialogue started on the best way to approach all this.   
Is my workflow correct in how I want to run this, and all I need to  
learn is how to get auth to work?

I plan on running ASSP in a test pass through mode for a week or so  
before turning on any real anti spam features.

Thanks for any help.
