Nope...Gossamer Mail uses MySQL and db.pass is a flat file. What you would need to do is the following:

* Upgrade DBMAN to DBMAN SQL.
* Then use the same USER table for both Gossamer Mail and DBMAN.

You might want to check out the Gossamer Mail product page for more information.

Hi,

Yes, Gossamer Mail can be made to pull it's authentication from flat file databases, however it's not recommend due to performance reasons. It does require some customization/programming though.

Cheers,

Alex
