How? Are they differentiated by the "login ID" field in the database record? Ought this field to contain the full "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?
That's it. All domains under the control of Quica are virtual domains
How are virtual domains different from any other? Are they not added under /etc/courier/hosteddomains? Are they added somewhere else?
Yes, they're hosteddomains. Sorry, I switched terminology.
Assuming that's so, what if it contains just "username"? (or just "@domain"?)
Quica does not provide for administration of local domains, so it won't create or modify users identified by just "username".
Local domains, meaning those in /etc/courier/hosteddomains?
No, local domains are those which are in etc/courier/locals.
If someone is set up with just "username" in the ID, will they recieve mails for [EMAIL PROTECTED] where * denotes any hosted domain? Or will they only recieve mails for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?
Read courier's documentation on local and hosted domains. When resolving addresses, courier examines the host part of the address. If that host is a hosteddomain, then courier has to find the complete address in its user db (whether that's LDAP, SQL, or a userdb). If the domain is a local, then the domain part is stripped off, and courier tries to find that user in its user db (LDAP, SQL, userdb, or unix system accounts).
