Only MySQL and PostgreSQL are supported in dbmail for the mailstore, both are supported for authentication as well as LDAP. Originally IC&S's official deployments were PostgreSQL, and that's what they recommended. Then they came into some sort of performance problem that caused a serious problem at one of their sites, so they switched to MySQL with InnoDB as the table handler. I haven't heard recently if that is still their position or not, I do believe the PostgreSQL issue was resolved though. There are people using both, so use whichever of the two you are most comfortable with. Ryan Butler ADI Internet Solutions [EMAIL PROTECTED]
