Hi Kai,


        Here is what I'm using with postfix to enable
virtual lookups via mysql;

        Note that the hosts= line was not working
with the .sock option, and 127.0.0.1 fixed many troubles.

        I included the mysql table schema at the end
of the table, but this schema is not the only one that
can be used.



(in main.cf):

virtual_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual.cf


(in mysql-virtual.cf):

#
# mysql config file for alias lookups on postfix
# comments are ok.
#

# the user name and password to log into the mysql server
hosts = 127.0.0.1
#hosts = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
user = mail
password = my_password_is_here

# the database name on the servers
dbname = mail

# the table name
table = virtual

#
select_field = rcpt
where_field = alias
#additional_conditions = and status = '1'


(mysql structure)

--
-- Table structure for table 'virtual'
--

CREATE TABLE virtual (
   alias varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
   rcpt varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
   status int(11) default NULL
 ) TYPE=MyISAM;
