Most likely there's a permission problem on the database for IIM. When you psql, what user are you using? Is there a password for it? Currently IIM just uses the defaults when it connects which I think is just the postgres user (which it tries to create in the install script). Did your machine that you're installing on already have postgres users, etc? IIM was initially written for mysql too, but changed over because of their weird licensing issues. It appears that when I did that I didn't fully get the support for different users/hosts working again, and there's a bit of code support needed in vars.php to get that to work again. If that's what's going on, I'll give you the patch for that.

i did modify the pg_hba.conf file to allow both local and host =

Can any one give me any pointers? Or have any advice at all to help me =
get this working?
Thank you in advance

IIM and DomainKeys were parallel developments. Neither was in response
to the other. Both proposals, in their revision, have incorporated
portions of the other.

At the FTC/NIST Email Authentication Summit two weeks ago, comparative
benchmarks of IIM and DomainKeys were presented. DomainKeys was
slightly faster (thought to be due to the extra SHA1 calculation in IIM)
but the computation burden of both approaches was light.

A comparison matrix between IIM and DomainKeys is at
http://mipassoc.org/mass/crocker-features-iim-dkeys-06dc.htm
A message I wrote with more discussion of the differences is at

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello, I just recently began reading some of the different proposals, as the news has info on recent events such as the FTC Spam Summit. I had earlier in the year looked at SPF and thought it was rather intelligent. I only recently began looking into the domain keys and internet identified mail. Was IIM setup to strengthen the original domain keys? I believe that the nofws was added more recently to domain keys, and that may be an indication that it was taking portions from IIM. I think I prefer what I see in domain keys better, as the keys are in the DNS server rather than in each message. Reading articles, it seems that both proposals have strong corporate backing, but in terms of implementation, it seems that the domain keys is ahead and has performance numbers with a test using sendmail. Can someone tell me in what ways IIM might be better than domain keys?
