Postfix Using hash and mysql for virtual users

jeremywebdev · 02-21-2021, 05:44 PM

Hi there,

Just a quick question really is it possible to get Postfix to use both a hash database if it cant say find the users email address in the hash database for it to then go to a mysql one?

Like so if it were to be imagined:

Code:

virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual_users, mysql:/path_to_configs_for_mysql

Obviously would be a little more than that for it to work but would it be possible?

I am using Postfix version postfix-2.10 and CentOS 7.9.2009

I think its possible in Dovecot given this guide https://doc.dovecot.org/configuratio...ion_databases/

Literally been scouring the web trying to find what I am looking for so I could modify it to fit my needs (or wants rather since its not really needed but would make a project I want to do far easier from an application standpoint.

Thanks ever so much in advance,
Jeremy.

Rather attempted such a thing I dont see how with Virtualmin how its possible to for it (without doing a heck of a lot of modifications to Webmin or which ever system) to differentiate between the sort of real Linux users (though with no login shell of course apart from virtual host admins) and the MySQL virtual users so either going to ditch this idea or change to ISPConfig where this is used I think

Thanks ever so much for anyone whos read this, just dont see myself how it's possible for it to yeah work
