Eh, hrm, yes of course. Sorry about that. :-)

I also use Courier IMAP, with mysql support for authentication.

A few notes about Courier + Postfix + mysql:

I seem to remember that we had minor problems setting up the tables since the
chroot()ed postfix required all maildirs (or mailboxes) to be relative to /var/mail, i.e in order to run this along with Courier, the "home" value is set
to "/var/mail" for all mail accounts. The "mailbox" will then contain something
like "username/Maildir/" (Don't forget the trailing slash!).

Furthermore, I think maildirs in /var/mail (and certainly if using subdirectories
like /var/mail/[client]/[employee]/Maildir/ like I did) will cause /etc/security
to complain. A small modification of the script took care of that, though.

Do you need help?
