Courier itself doesn't have any limits on how many virtual users you can
have. The only limitations are those imposed by what ever authentication
back-end you choose. If you use SQL or LDAP to store user information,
you can easily support thousands of users with no trouble.

A hundred virtual users is nothing. You can use userdb, SQL, or LDAP
with no trouble at all. If you have more than a couple hundred users,
then don't use userdb. Instead use SQL or LDAP.

In general, no. In fact, if you've got multiple virtual domains you want
to support virtual users are better in every respect. I personally never
use system accounts when configuring a mail server. I know that they are
applicable sometimes, but not for anything I use Courier for.
