The URLS says: As a system hosts more and more domains and users, it becomes less desirable to give every user their own UNIX system account. I agree. This system will however host 5 or so email accounts, that number will not grow, and I'd rather avoid extra complexity virtual setup brings (as virtual users for Postfix is one, and matching virtual users for the POP/IMAP server is another thing). To sum up: there is no way for Postfix to map "u...@domain.com" email to "u...@domain.com" system account - did I understand correctly? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://www.ptraveler.com
