We are an isp who has used sendmail for many years and we are converting to
qmail. In sendmail we have traditionally used the virtual user table to
allow customers to use a commonly used mailbox like 'webmaster', for
example, at their domain. In the virtusertable on sendmail, if you put only
[EMAIL PROTECTED] in the virtusertable, then any other mailbox
address for that domain, [EMAIL PROTECTED] for example, will
automatically default to fred@ our default domain. With qmail's virtual
user processing, there is no local delivery if 'fred' is not specified in
either the virtual user table itself or in the dot qmail file in the
delivery address specified for the virtual domain.
I'm wondering if there is some way to imitate sendmail's default behavior in
qmail's virtualdomains file or some other qmail control file that I don't
know about yet. It is very important for us to be able to deliver local
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] by default - i.e.
without having to create a .qmail-anyuser file in the delivery mailbox for
customers.domain for each potential recipient. The reason is that in one
virtual domain case we have literally thousands of such recipients and only
a handful of special delivery cases that will have .qmail files. Is there a
simple way to do this?
Thanks,
Mike
