Another issue that's come up is that of the actual virtual domain design. In reality, we have 1 domain, but several sub domains within that domain that make up the different IMAP e-mail servers. The Cyrus documentation suggests that you can have:
mail.example.net mail.example.com
...but does not seem to imply you could have:
dep1.example.com dep2.example.com
...as two separate domains and have authentication and mail delivery work properly with this configuration. Am I misunderstanding the design of the virtual domain support in 2.2.X? Will Cyrus virtual domains work with what I need to do?
Are you going to continue to use virtual IP addresses? Cyrus strips the first part of the FQDN as the local name and leaves the rest as the domain. So if you use names like:
mail.dep1.example.com mail.dep2.example.com
this will give you domains:
dep1.example.com dep2.example.com
If this doesn't work for you and have a better way of determining the domain from the IP address, I'm all ears. The most complaints that we've had about the virt domains code, is the domain-from-IP half.
