I cant think of a situation off the top of my head that this would cause
problems in other than passwords getting confused on the user-end between the two user entries.

Hi,

I have a situation where I would like users to be able to login to check mail with a different username to their email address.

What I thought about doing was copying the users entry in the vpopmail table and just changing the username.

e.g.:

user:domain.com:$1$phS3B0$5EkQY3SYejdzRF4klHXOv.:0:0:user:/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user:NULL:password
alias::$1$phS3B0$5EkQY3SYejdzRF4klHXOv.:0:0:user:/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user:NULL:password

Can anyone see any problems with doing things this way?

cheers, Iain.
