Apologies for the hijack.

I just seem to recall this being discussed a bit, some time ago, and concluding (perhaps with no consensus) that having all domains in a single table made more sense.

This was discussed here some time ago in this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg22035.html
It appears that chkuser might need multiple tables? I don't see why. I'm guessing that this person simply didn't rebuild qmail-toaster after rebuilding and reinstalling vpopmail-toaster, which would be required (and qtp-newmodel would do automatically). Perhaps Tonino could confirm this.

Then on the development list last October:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.qmail.toaster.devel/638

Here's a reference that indicates performance can be poor with --disable-many-domains (as well as speculation that it may be removed at some point)
http://bowe.id.au/michael/isp/webmail-server.htm

Here's the thread(s) I was thinking of:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg27618.html
and this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg27619.html

I support discontinuing the use of the --disable-many-domains build option at some point. It's not imperative that it be done any time soon.

I think further discussion has merit. Perhaps it would be best to implement this with vpopmail 5.5, and QMTv2.1+ ?
