We will be releasing what we have delevoped in ColdFusion on sourceforge.
There has already been a volunteer to convert it over to PHP. I am not sure
how successful he will be, but it is going to be available.
The dbmail admin interface includes the following functionality:
1. Add/delete/edit users (password, real name, client they belong to, dialup
access, mailbox size limit, when account was created, when account was last
used, imap mailboxes, total space used, and email addresses that go to this
user)
2. Search by username.
3. Search by description/Real Name(TM).
4. Add/delete/edit email addresses (which username that email address goes to,
which client that email address belongs to)
5. Search by email addresses
6. Add/delete/edit clients (this is something that we have added to dbmail. By
default it has a client id and that is all. We have added the ability to
store more info about a client: name, domains, users, email addresses, limits
on the number of users and emails)
7. Search by client name
8. Add/edit vacation messages (Which are stored on an external email server,
by using ssh/scp with shared keys. This relies on the vacation autoresponder
program "vacation".)
9. Give users dialup service (limit their use, give them static ip's)
10. We added the ability to have multiple users of the dbmail interface. We
want to be able to define a list of users who are admins, and then log all
changes each admin makes to the database. We do not have the loggin setup
yet. For ex. if user bob deletes username billyg and email addresses
[EMAIL PROTECTED], then we will put entries into a logfile that says:
user bob deleted username billg on Fri Oct 11 15:11:39 CDT 2002
user bob deleted email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Fri Oct 11 15:11:39 CDT 2002
etc...
This is so we can track what each admin does for accountability reasons. This
won't be until near the end of 2002.
11. All users belong to a client.
12. All domains dbmail answers for belong to a client.
Category contains entities:
Client:
- users
- domains
- email addresses
Users:
- size limit on mailbox
- imap folders
- dial-up access or not
- static ip for dialup or not
Email Address:
- spam/virus policy
13. We have two databases that we keep sync'd up (on two different servers).
So, for every update, insert, and delete from the interface, we do two
calls--one to each db.
If you would like a screen shot of some part of the interface or all of it so
you can see what it looks like, let me know.
If you want an example login and interface, we can setup a dummy database and
interface.
