It is easy enough to get the server running, but I now have two specific problems.

How does one add user accounts? I need a handful of user accounts in several domains. None of these may have login accounts on the host operating system, which is what the alias file appears to be for. SQL based systems need not apply here, unless someone can point me to open source peer to peer replication for Postgres. I won't be using LDAP for the small number of accounts that I'm starting with.

How does one specify maildir format instead of a single mailbox file? I see reference to a 'maildir_format' in the specification, but can't find enough details.

I am looking for a tutorial for creating a simple Exim configuration - a half dozen domains, and a handful of users for each domain, without server logins. The project documentation is just what it says, a specification, rather than a procedural tutorial geared to the new user. Google searches haven't turned up anything. Any URLs? Or books (the O'Reilly Exim book doesn't help either.) As an example, I can't find instructions for adding non- local account users.

P.S. I'm trying Exim, rather than Postfix, because it seems to offer much greater control over operation. This also seems to be its Achilles heel - the configuration options seem overwhelming.
