I've finally made some new Postfix builds for SuSE Linux. The new builds are available for SuSE 9.3 and SLES9. The builds include MySQL lookup support.

You find them at http://www.norrbring.biz/SuSE/

IMHO SUSE should ship a postfix-mysql package, is a very useful feature.

That'a the HO of many people.. Heheh.. Anders.

Wasn't that the other way around? PHP coders who were doing proprietary/closed stuff resented the MySQL license change to GPL, which meant their stuff had to be GPL too if it linked directly to it. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.kyfieithu.co.uk - Meddalwedd Rhydd yn Gymraeg www.cymrux.org.uk - Linux Cymraeg ar un CD!

Hm, that does ring a bell.

Postfix is released under something called the "IBM Public License". Perhaps the issue then is that it isn't compatible with the GPL

I think the mayor issue here,is the feature that we lost. other distros like Trustix,Debian;Ubuntu,Centos(on contrib section) have alternative packages or simple a postfix-mysql.rpm "module".

Then, perhaps, pgsql. On 5/28/05, Anders Johansson wrote:
