Re: Can't get it to work!! - Working-ish

The config files should be in /usr/share/doc/dbmail-mysql/examples

There you'll find among others dbmail.conf (which should go into
/etc/dbmail/dbmail.conf) and default.dbmail.ex (which should go into
/etc/default/dbmail). dbmail.conf is required by the dbmail-xxx 
binaries, while /etc/default/dbmail is required by the 
/etc/init.d/dbmail script. I'm not sure the latter is installed by
alien. The default file only contains some switches for starting
the pop and imap servers, and the stunnel wrapper.
