Hello list,
I stumbled on the failure to deliver mail to external recipients,
when the local user was over quota.
Is dbmail the correct place to do the alias expansion?
Shouldn't this be done better in the MTA?
Postfix and Sendmail supports connection with some work to both
postgreSQL and MySQL. Isn't it better that we document the
installation process for both MTAs than trying to implement the
functionality ourselves.
I beleive that we will increase the scalability of the
application if we move the alias expansion to Postfix or Sendmail.
Is there is a way make the MTA doit the same way as DBMail does know.
e.g:
have an alias that forwards to an external address and to a local address.
Hmm, I'm sure there's a way to do that.. Can you give an example of
how to configure Postfix to do this?

From the postfix site,
http://www.postfix.org/MYSQL_README.html
In short the way to operate is,
1. Install the postfix-mysql package, or compile postfix with
MySQL support.
2. edit main.cf and add
alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-aliases.cf
3. Edit the file above, I actually beleive it can read the dbmail
alias table with the right commands.
Postfix supports both MySQL and PostgreSQL
