The question about best practices was more a conceptual one. Should dovecot and postfix talk independently to the LDAP database? Or should dovecot be the gateway for postfix to get the information out of the LDAP database?
Just my 2 cents, id have postfix talk directly to LDAP to see if a user is valid for accepting mail. Having it go through dovecot is just adding extra moving parts and overhead. Cut out the middle man since postfix would be talking to the same "database" that dovecot would. Why give dovecot more work? _______________________________________________ dovecot mailing list -- dovecot@dovecot.org To unsubscribe send an email to dovecot-le...@dovecot.org
