Chalie / Postfix List,
    Does the audb extension allow me to forward mail for certain users that
i setup in userdb? And if so how do i set this up.

If I use the mySQL how do I configure it for Courier Maildrop + IMAPD. i.e.
where is the users table which is the same as userdb?
and where is the forwarders table ?

Thanks
