Howdy,

Ok, the only way I can think to ask this question is to give an example:

I have sendmail setup with virtual domains. I think. What I mean is that I have about 
5 domains, whose MX records point to my IP, entered into /etc/sendmail.cw.  I'll use 
the examples of mymaindomain.com and firstvirtual.com and lastvirtual.com - totally 
separate domains for which we also have virtual hosting set up in Apache.

This works fine in and of it's self, with one problem:

If you email [EMAIL PROTECTED], or jw@, or admin@, or any other localuser@it gets 
sent of course to the local user of that name. (by the way we have pop3 working fine) 
This was fin until one of our customers wanted a [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
address, and we realized that other customers will probably want contact@, info@, 
webmaster@, etc for their different domains - but we can't have our users reading each 
other's mail!

Until now we've been creating local users, setting the shell to /bin/false and giving 
the pop3 access - but you can't have multiple local users of the same name! I see that 
sendmail has a virtual users table, but I'm not sure if it solves my problem or not.

So the real question is, how do I manage to have multiple "virtual" email accounts 
that have the same username, but are "at" different domains name? Surely you aren't 
limited to having all your mail users be local users, are you?

In particular info@ is in high demand, as you can imagine.

Any help (especially expedient help) would be /greatly/ appreciated!

        JW
