Seems nobody wants to discuss this here.

If the extra "dbmail_domains" table would be included, there's another 
simplification that would be nice:

- in dbmail_users.userid you only need to store the user name without 
domain extension
- dbmail could automatically append all possible alias domains for that 
user
- that would need another field "domain_idnr" or so, because one client 
(customer) could have several domains like this:
domA
domB (alias of domA)
domC
domD (alias of domC)
with my current model, you can't know from a user if he should be in 
domA+B or domC+D, because only the client_idnr exists

The advantage:
- store only userpart of login (e.g. user1, user2, user3)
- auto-append alias and root domains ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc)
- so the user can login as both domains, without any difference
- the difference is just for logging purposes, e.g. user1 has a PC and a 
Notebook. The admin sets as username on the PC [EMAIL PROTECTED], and on the 
Notebook [EMAIL PROTECTED], to easily find out which PC/notebook connected 
when

One other feature request: I'd like to have more stats.
- For every hour a user logs in via imap/pop, log number of queries and 
bytes transferred. Like this, you can find your heavy users, which is 
good for optimizing the database (balance over multiple servers)
- How many e-mails and bytes per hour does a user receive
