- Description:
- Dbmail is the name of a group of programs that enable the possibility of
storing and retrieving mail messages from a database (currently MySQL,
PostgreSQL or SQLite).
* Scalability.
Dbmail is as scalable as the database system that is used for the mail
storage. In theory millions of accounts can be managed using dbmail. One
could, for example, run 4 different servers with the pop3 daemon each
connecting to the same database (cluster) server.
* Manageability.
Dbmail is based upon a database. Dbmail can be managed by changing settings
in the database (f.e. using PHP/Perl/SQL), without needing shell access.
* 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.

dbmail 2.0.0 needs -fPIC set in order to be sodomized by libtool on amd64.
Set this universally since it's quite plausible that other 64bit platforms
may need this. Don't bump the port version since it wasn't installable on
the systems that would need the portversion bump. |

[new port] mail/dbmail: An SQL database-based mail system (POP3 and IMAP)
(author description)
The DBMAIL package replaces the normal UNIX mailing system.
All emails and users data are stored in a database. You can
create an unlimited number of email accounts, which can be
checked using the POP3 or IMAP protocol. Users can maintain
their own set of email addresses. It is more scalable, more
secure, and faster than traditional mail systems. DBMAIL
uses PostgreSQL or MySQL.
