Sounds as if you need to generate static files with a script. Don't worry about the number of entries; hash: tables scale well to hundreds of thousand entries, or use cdb: files for fast performance up to millions of entries. (cdb: works great for smaller files too.) -- Noel Jones

Over on the Dovecot side of things, I have the passdb/userdb files split out by domain name. This allows me to manage restricted access. That means I can permit a less-technical administrator to access only certain domains. If they cause a problem, or some other problem happens when they are updating, there is less exposure to failure (and less work the update regression tests I could add to that have to do). So it looks like I'll need to regenerate the virtual_alias_map file every time even users are updated (much more frequent then how often domains are updated), and run the mail system tests more often. I can, of course, generate them from those Dovecot passdb files. |
