I suck. I am coming from the windoze world, but am trying to convert to Linux. Pretty steep learning curve thus far, but I am getting there. >Try adding to your sources.list: >deb http://debian.nfgd.net/debian unstable main >and install dbmail-mysql after running an apt-get update. >But make double sure you remove all binaries and libs from the previous >home-made 2.0 build before you do. That did the trick! Now from Microsoft Outlook via pop3 I can authenticate against my account. So dbmail-pop3d is working. Haven't tested imap, but I'm sure it is as well. SO NOW I AM LEFT WITH A POSTFIX MTA that can't deliver email to mysql. Please help, I am under the gun here to get this up and running. It still says that it cannot connect to mysql via: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, which does exist. What do I look for and where to try to figure this lack of connection out? I have chose to use dbmail-smtpd for delivery and have followed the dbmail INSTALL.postfix directions. Postfix was installed from apt-get testing and is at version 2.1.4-5. I also installed via apt-get postfix-mysql from testing, which is at 2.1.4-5. Other than my dabbling in master.cf, main.cf, and transport what else can I look for to test postfix against mysql? Thanks Paul.
