[TriLUG] Postfix config questions

[Sam Folk-Williams]

Lisa, so far so good -- what exactly is in those two sendmail config
files? You might be able to just keep using them, pointing postfix to
them the same as you do for alias entries. For example, I keep virtual
user info in a mysql database, and the line from main.cf looks like
this:

virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-maps.cf

You could make it something like:

virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/path/to/file

However, I'm not sure about the syntax of those files or exactly
what's in them, so you might need a different directive on the postfix
side...
