[ILUG] postfix/mail delivery

 From that website you linked to before..

"Okay, Here's the bunch of files you're going to need when setting this
up: 

      sendmail-8.10.1+mysql
      This is the almighty sendmail daemon patched to work with mysql"

Looks like it's the MTA does the work here. You could in theory use
/etc/procmailrc to deliver mail based on a MySQL table. All it requires
is a perl/shell/php/some language script called from there that
interogates a MySQL db before delivering the message to some mailbox. 

Donncha.
