Since POP3 lacks the possiblity to authenticate a user for a specific

username.domainname


Minor point...,


Cyrus IMAP server, and a few others that support virtual domains use [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think that approach has the advantage of being able to tell the user "Just use your full email address as your login name"

Plus "username.domainname" may cause issues, since the '.' dot is a valid charactor in usernames eg. In your current scheme [EMAIL PROTECTED] becomes kervin.pierre.mail.domain.com. But what if we're also hosting emails on the @domain.com domain? The login is abiguous with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
