I didn't compile my qmail with this option.
I tried to link a domain as the default domain, and everything goes fine.
But is this case, there can only be ONE default domain.

Can I turn on this option after I installed my qmail package??
Because I install my qmail from RPM files, without compiling them by myself.
Is there more document about this function??

I think so, too.
I am just wondering is there any solution for a ferfect answer?
Both more convenient for administrator and users.
Right now we are building a Internet community website, and we need a
webmail system for our site. So first I have to consider can our webmail
works fine with the "user%domain" mail format.
I had tried the sqwebmail package, and everything seems fine.
The only problem is that we are using Chinese characters,
and there wiil be some coding error on it.
