Len, we have a few clients that like the nobody alias feature, where one
account will any email address at that domain.com. Is that possible with
IMGate?

Imail SMTPD doesn't handle high volumes of unknown recipients well, as many 
IMGate users can attest, and so becomes DoS'ed.

And any Imail add-on product, sitting behind IMail SMTPD service, is unable 
to help.

The best, perhaps only solution is to use a separate machine as front-end 
MX to reject unknown recipients, at least.  And something like IMGate can 
do that, and much more, restoring your mailserver's level of service, and 
extending its useful life
