    I've been working on this project for about 2 months now (non-work related)
    and I'm pretty fed up with googling and RTFM'ing. Basically what I'm doing
    is setting up an IMAP server (Courier) with virtual users (MySQL) using
    Postfix as my MTA. So far the HOWTO provided by Mischa Peters
    (http://high5.net/howto/) has been the most helpful. I'm able to add users
    through the web-based interface "Postfix Admin" (because I have no clue how
    to add users manually) everything appears to be fine. I can see the users
    being added to the tables in the database, but I'm still unable to log in
    using squirrelmail and imp. The only thing that I can see wrong is this:

    debian-server:/var/log/apache# tail -f /var/log/syslog

    Aug 29 11:00:25 debian-server postfix/smtpd[6969]: fatal: dict_open:
    unsupported dictionary type: mysql
    Aug 29 16:00:26 debian-server postfix/master[901]: warning: process
    /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 6969 exit status 1
    Aug 29 16:00:26 debian-server postfix/master[901]: warning:
    /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

    From what I've read, this is due to me not running 'makemap' unfortunately
    the version of Courier included with Debian does not seem to have makemap.
    Does anyone have any experiences or suggestions with this? I'm really sorry
    I'm posting this in a Debian mailing list, but it is my belief that this
    has more to do with Debian than anything else (well, other than me being an
    idiot.) If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much
    appreciated.

    System Info:

    Pentium Pro 200
    128MB RAM
    Debian (Woody 3.0)
    Linux 2.4.18-bf2.4

    Please let me know if you need any more information, thanks.
