Re: Can one user have more than one system mailboxes?
i suck in administering sendmail... most of my admin friends use postfix but personally I use qmail :) ... it uses qmailadmin for webbased mailbox management and vqadmin for webbased email domain management. if you're interested, here is a nice installation/config guide.. http://freebsd.qmailrocks.org/install.htm === Gil A.

Re: Can one user have more than one system mailboxes?
Can a user have more than one system mailbox? E. g., some ISP provides the next service: a client can make any number of mailboxes for himself using web interface. Almost all ISP are using UNIX. So, how they do this? Does that web interface create a new system user every time I create a new mailbox? I have sendmail 8.13.6 on FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE. Sorry, I missed OP. 1st: I doubt ISP's relies on unix accounts for mail. Rather they likely have clients in an ldap directory and mail on some database backend storage. 2nd: You can create an extra mailbox by adding a line to /etc/mail/aliases: mailbox_name:/path/to/mailbox_name then run newaliases. To let a user access the mailbox you need to set filepermissions accordingly.
