The virtusertable is a list of virtual addresses...something like the
/etc/aliases (or is that /etc/mail/aliases) file.  The first part of the
line is the virtual address, the second is the address which should
actually accept the mail.

No...more like:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Adduser never does a thing to your virtusertable entries...I'm assuming
that the same box is hosting thewebsons.com and nwhotspring.com.  If there
is already a "sales" account on the "thewebsons.com" box, adduser wouldn't
let you create another "sales" account, anyhow.
