Hi,

An easy way to use this is to create accounts like:

dm1_bob
dm2_bob

where dm1 would be dm1.com and dm2 would be dm2.com

Let say these two accounts reside on "domain.com", so
in real life they are:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Then configure postfix to have incoming mappings, and
outgoing mappings.

For the incoming, anything to [EMAIL PROTECTED] gets sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and anything to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] gets sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

You then do the same thing (but in reverse) for
outgoing address sent from each of those dm1_bob and
dm2_bob accounts. So when those users send from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] postfix will change it
to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For whatever client they are using, all clients have
the ability to tell the MTA what email address they
are coming from f.e. for
[EMAIL PROTECTED], just tell you mail
reader your "From:" address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
