Check out the VMailMgr program at www.vmailmgr.org. It gives you the
capability to add users to virtual domains, and pop the accounts, with the
same username across several domains. It also has PHP library support :)

Subject: newbie maildir question
Hi all,
I selected qmail as my mailserver after readiung that it would easily
support multiple virtual domains using it's maildir directory system,
rather than relying on system users for its delivery. I am setting up
a server which will only need to send from my PHP webserver. and
a limited number of addresses, yet need to receive mail for
hundreds of clients (they all send through their dial-ujp provider). I
want to make account creation and maintenance as painless and
quick as possible, most likely through a PHP script, which seems
easy enough by exec-ing out to the users utility, however I'm a little
baffled...
What is the specific syntax of the Users file? Can I add the
VirtualDomain name as part of the user ID?
Would I be able to create a single qmail user in a qmail group that
all message processes run under?
It is really important to me that I be able to have identical user
names across domains (for instance, all domains I host have an
[EMAIL PROTECTED] address), and that setting up new users be
as painless as possible.
I'm sure there are resources out there that explain what I am doing,
but have yet to discover them. If anyone can nudge me in the right
direction, I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks,
J!M
