On the Postfix site, there are several documents call something like Postfix+Amavisd+LDAP+virtual+Cyrus. They will give you the step by step how two. You may need to read two or three of them to get it all right... It's not that hard, you will have to read until you understand though. On Saturday 18 November 2006 17:11, John Andersen wrote:

I need this for a LUG server :-))
I would not be the best person to do this for you. I'm not totally sure I understand all parts of it myself, and quite frankly my familiarity with SUSE got in the way while installing SLES, because I was tempted to do things the SUSE way instead of the SLES way.
Mail goes to Postfix -> Amavisd (virusscan +spamassassin) -> Cyrus Cyrus replaces procmail and pop3d and imapd.
On top of that postfix is set up as a double pass MTA, where incoming mail is routed through it twice (initially, and then again after amavisd blesses it).
Postfix and cyrus use ldap for authentication/validation, and mail does not need a login account for each user, nor a home directory for each user. Users are managed via the Yast Ldap module.
I think it would be difficult to get this all working in opensuse just because its complex, not because any piece is missing. Some very sharp folks set it up for you in SLES.
You can download SLES and try it out I suppose. There is a huge PDF in the install explaining all this stuff.
