Yes, I'm looking to experiment with the name serving aspect also...

And your authentication? I'm also switching to LDAP (Active Driectory) 
in all this, so I have a bit to learn there. 

It appears from the doc's I can go with 
1. local, aliasing all the "non-local" users to the other server, or
2. local, but tweaking the LDAP query to provide server info within the 
delivery. i.e. /var/maildirs/server1/username1/Maildir 
and /var/maildirs/server2/username2/Maildir
3. hosteddomains, similiar to 2. but I think this will change the login 
account to [EMAIL PROTECTED], no?

(I haven't researched the above, yet, so I apologize for any 
inaccuracies.. no doubt some kind person will correct me. :-)
