Hi, For web-cyradm there is no specific advantage of postgresql over mysql. But I was developing a mail and RADIUS system for our company that was very complex and needed referential integrity checks and triggers which are only in PostgreSQL. In the process I decided to experiment on web-cyradm with postgresql and documented it. With my document you can simply use mysql by just installing pam-mysql and editing the pam.d/imap slightly and it would work. If you intend to extend the web-cyradm system and make it more complex with triggers/checks e.t.c you are better off with postgresql. Otherwise mysql is nice fast and simple. While I have no benchmark tests, it's all about choice in the end. :-) Andrew.
