Don't worry about what domain the prompt of your pop3 server says, as it's
not relevant to vpopmail authentication.
Assuming you are using vpopmail (which is the only reason you'd post to this
list), the domain is determined by the username you use. For domain1, the
username would be [EMAIL PROTECTED] or user%domain1.com. For domain2, he
username would be [EMAIL PROTECTED] or user%domain2.com. This allows you to
have multiple domains on one IP address.
All this is covered in the documentation for vpopmail.
