  Sure - even better. As i said the requirement from our point of view was
  simply for the UI for multi domains etc and  I realise Julian will not
  be all of sudden putting all reliance of mailscanner working in the
  hands of mysql and realise Julian concentrates most of his efforts on
  combating spam et al.

  I guess the preference is for official support - like postfix has - but
  with the above, even better mod - but any will do at this stage.

  thanks again
