-Dbmail is the name of a group of programs that enable the possiblilty of storing
-and retrieving mail messages from a database (currently MySQL or PostgreSQL).
-
-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.
