Hello,
has someone run a Mailserver (Postfix) with virtuell User which not
use Mysql/Postgresql Database Backen? I has read the Dovecot / Postfix
Websites which has Howtos for No Database but so really want not run.
The most Howto i found are for Mysql and on Debian. Gentoo is not use
as Web/Mailserver? I found only the wiki from Gentoo but is only use
with Database. Has someone a config and can shared or know someone a
Tutorial which can take as first step to install?
Thank you & Greetings
Silvio

You can also setup postfix and dovecot to work with virtual users
without a DB .. although it is somewhat harder to maintain IMO. postfix
reads textfiles easily ... dovecot is also very flexible ... it all
depends on what number of users to provide if a no-DB-setup makes sense.
Why do you want to avoid it?
Your email suggests you are from germany ... I recommend "Das
Postfix-Buch" by Peer Heinlein for a start.
Nothing gentoo-specific here ... no reason not to use gentoo as a
mailserver (I do that for years, although with mysql).

Hello,
i would say file based ist pretty much the default. All i specified in
postfix is in main.cf "home_mailbox = Maildir/".
And in dovecot in 10-mail.conf "mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir"
Nothing else is storage related.
