Use posty for existing PostFix installation? #12

Dear all,

thanks for creating posty, as it is a nice piece of software. It works fine with a fresh install of postfix, but one of my server has postfix already running with postfixadmin and mysql backend end used for configuration.

Can I use posty with this existing setup? Are the DB details I have to put in the database.yml those, which I already use for postfixadmin? And do I have to do rake db:migrate for this existing setup?

Thanks a lot and best regards, Chris

Hi Chris, posty has a own mysql database structure which is not fully compatible with postfixadmin structure. I think the best solution is a migration script which i integrate in the posty_api.
