Thank you, Gordon, for idea.

But it has two problems:
1) synchronization of user lists -- if admin adds/deletes users from
lotus box, new users will be not recognized until synchronization and no
longer users will still be recognized...
2) I will have to add something to the domain in the aliases I create,
as otherwise they will not be sent to the right host for final delivery.
I would like to avoid that extra part.

Any better ideas?
