Imail does it fine, with a couple of reservations. 1: get the 3rd party odbcuser.dll. 2: create a separate database in SQL Server. Don't be tempted to use the default db. 3: set the ODBC DSN to NT authentication (not SQL login) and make it default to the database you created. Use a system DSN rather than a file one. (its faster) 4: make sure that the NT account has the correct permissions on the database before you start Imail. 5: Imail is flakey when creating a domain with an external DB. You first create the domain with the external db setting then save it. Go back into the settings and then configure the external db settings. Save it again. Then and only then will it create the table in SQL and the associated "root" user. 6: there is a "feature" in Imail that doesn't create any indexing on the table it creates. Manually create one for the userid field. This will speed things up and also make sure you can't have duplicate entries. 7: Once its working you can create / update / delete users from SQL without having to use Imail's adduser utility. We use an ASP script to replicate users across 200 virtual domains this way, all sharing a common mailbox folder. "Grover C. Fields" wrote: > > I am trying to configure IMAIL 6.0 to use SQL 7.0.
