-Dbmail is the name of a group of programs that enable the possiblilty
-of storing and retrieving mail messages from a database (currently
-MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite).
-
-What are the advantages?
-
- * Scalability.
- Dbmail is as scalable as the database that is used for the
- mail storage.
- * Manageability.
- Dbmail is based upon a database. Dbmail can be managed by
- changing settings in the database (f.e. using PHP/Perl/SQL).
- * Speed.
- Dbmail uses very efficient, database specific queries for
- retrieving mail information. This is much faster then parsing
- a filesystem.
- * Security.
- Dbmail has got nothing to do with the filesystem or interaction
- with other programs in the Unix environment which need special
- permissions. Dbmail is as secure as the database it's based
- upon.
- * Flexibility.
- Changes on a Dbmail system (adding of users, changing passwords
- etc.) are effective immediately.
