Hi Sean,
I've already got this scheduled for development into the new 4.10.X
versions. I figured we could use the same directory hashing code
that domains use for thier users. Just apply it to domain directories.

The old versions used to assume /home/vpopmail/domains/%s But the 4.9.X
series uses the directory from /var/qmail/users/assign via the
vget_assign() function call. It also gets the user id and group id
that the domain is owned by from the same line.
Actually, it reads the /var/qmail/users/cdb file and uses cdb
functions to pull the line out.
