Thanks, Sandy.  Actually, there was only one mail domain listed on the server (it was 
called mxforward).  It didn't use domain aliases in the way iMail does, but it rather 
referred to that text file to find out where to forward the message.  True, 
technically the server supported N domains... but my point is, there was only one 
domain to set up and manage.

>I  don't  know why you're so averse to adding a new domain 
>(there is a command-line  utility  for this).

Yes, programatic administration is pretty good in iMail... but what I wanted to stay 
away from was having tens of thousands of mail domains to administer on the iMail 
server (I should have mentioned that).  That's a lot of work even if things rarely 
change, and potentially extra hardware, for something we want to provide our customers 
for free.  ;-)

I don't think there's any way to do it in iMail, either.

Thanks!

No,  you  just  had  all the valid mail domains listed in a text file.
That's  not  "one  mail domain." It's just barebones configuration for
multiple local domains.

IMail  does  not  support  a text file option for storing local domain
information. It is always stored in the Registry.

I  don't  know why you're so averse to adding a new domain (there is a
command-line  utility  for this). With ADDDOMAIN and ADDALIAS, you can
make this a very swift process.
