This document describes how to install a PureFTPd server that uses virtual users from a MySQL database instead of real system users.

HowtoForge: "This document describes how to install a Postfix mail server that is based on virtual users and domains, i.e. users and domains that are in a MySQL database.

I'll also demonstrate the installation and configuration of Courier (Courier-POP3, Courier-IMAP), so that Courier can authenticate against the same MySQL database Postfix uses."

HowtoForge: "This document is derived from Christoph Haas' tutorial "Howto: ISP-style Email Server with Debian-Etch and Postfix" (http://workaround.org) and Falko Timme's tutorial "Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS)" (http://www.howtoforge.com).

The associated Mailfix Drupal module must be installed as part of this tutorial."

The final results is this howto."
