Is there a way to get qmail to deliver email to an account that's
not in /etc/passwd (or its shadow equivalent)?
In other words, can I set up a separate database (e.g. MySQL)
that qmail can access for account information?
I note that qmail has /var/qmail/users/assign, but it references
both UID's and GID's, which are maintained by /etc/passwd.
I am setting up 2 clustered systems that will use shared storage
(non NFS) to maintain each user's Maildir, and would rather not
have to worry about keeping 2 separate system's passwd files in
sync.
qmail-ldap does this, and it contains native clustering code.
