Hello Friends,


Let me take Adam on this ;)

And you by extension.

I tried openwebmail today. It was very difficult to get running under a
virtualhost in apache. Perhaps I missed some point but even as
we speak, I still believe something is not right with the setup.
http://owm.wananchi.com.

The login window looks very nice, but I haven't managed to get it to
authenticate a user at all. Why? Because I am still not sure. I think
I will need a whole night (w/o interferences) to do that. Those who
have used it may help me though.
I am moving towards a complete virtual setup where all users are in
a MySQL database. What I would like to know (which I so far doubt) is
whether openwebmail can authenticate using encrypted passwords (md5 -
same as those we have in master.passwd) from the DB. My setup stores
mail in /var/spool/virtual/$domain/$user/Maildir/. Is openwebmail
ever capable of reading the mail from this path, leave alone from
/home/$user/Maildir ($HOME/Maildir)??

Can it accept virtual user logins (user@domains)??

Or perhaps I can use PAM, with pam_mysql??

I'd very much appreciate any pointers. The webforum for OWM is not
the best that I have ever seen. I like Mailman-like forums, not one
like the owm one;)

The USA is so enormous, and so numerous are its schools, colleges and
religious seminaries, many devoted to special religious beliefs ranging
from the unorthodox to the dotty, that we can hardly wonder at its
yielding a more bounteous harvest of gobbledygook than the rest of the
world put together.
