Reading the fine manual, VIRTUAL(8), clears some of my careless
clueless misconceptions. Postfix virtual mailbox domains are
implemented by the virtual(8) delivery agent. It is based upon the
Postfix local(8) delivery agent. Perhaps Mailman would like a Postfix
delivery agent that uses the virtual_mailbox_maps and friends like
virtual(8) does but puts the messages to a structure specifically
designed to Mailman's liking. In the interim, would it be possible
when using maildirs in this application to avoid some of the gyrations
that are ordinarily done for a normal MUA application?
