clustering ??

2001-08-09 Thread François Philippo

what does exactly mean clustering with Qmail ?

- 2 servers redondant with a load balancing which accede to the same disk
system
or
- 2 differents servers where each one stock half of mailboxes with a
multiplexor who reroute user request on the good server following LDAP
attribute or a table?
or
- something else ?


thanx

RE: hardware sizing ?

2001-08-09 Thread François Philippo

I suppose that all your users set the same servers (pop, smtp...) in their
mal software
so you use something to reroute each user on the good server which stock his
mailbox.
how do you do that ?
thanx

We build all our servers on RedHat and have had no problems.

We only have about 6,000 users but they are distributed around several data
centers in the UK and Ireland.

what is a user-oriented virtual-domain tables

2001-08-08 Thread François Philippo

I try to replace an interresting netscape messenger function with qmail.

auto-rewrite an email address and send it to the good server
--
ex:
receive an email for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rewrite to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and sending it

the best would be to works with ldap (like netscape)

I have found fastfoward. 
which works with an what is a user-oriented virtual-domain tables.
can someone send me an example of a such table?

100x faster than using aliases.

I need to replace a netscape mesenger server fonctionality with Qmail:

the netscape fonctionality
---
all mails are recieve to the same server.
when it receive an email it looks on the LDAP if he have to deliver it
locally or remotely.
if it is remotely it rewrite the adresse as "user@good-server-adress" and
send it.
of course it use a specific feild in the ldap but I can change what ever I
want on my LDAP

wish it's clear.


is it possible with QMAIL?
sure it is, but ...how ???


thanx
