Daniel Perry commented on JAMES-426:
------------------------------------

Whilst i think that this a great idea (not that i'm biased atall!), i dont 
think this code provides the best solution.

The current code is totally locked into the virtual user table.  What i would 
like to see is a way to specify classes (with configs) which provide the local 
servernames.  This way, a class could be written to complement 
jdbcvirtualusertable, one for xmlvirtualusertable, and another for 
relay-hosts(together with a matcher to send them straight to outgoing 
transport).  I think this would provide a more flexible aproach, that would 
probably be of use in custom setups, as well as a general virtual hosting 
server.

> Attached is a patch that makes james use the virtualusertable database for 
> identifying local hosts.  It also allows for continued use of servernames 
> block.  It is backwards compatible, and unless an extra attribute is added in 
> the configuration, it wont affect james's behaviour.
> It is configured by adding the domainTable attribute to the servernames 
> element, eg:
> <servernames autodetect="true" autodetectIP="true" 
> domainTable="db://maildb/VirtualUserTable">
> Please note that the patch i will attach against svn trunk, but has been 
> copied over directly from 2.2.0, and i havnt had a chance to check if it 
> compiles or works with svn trunk.
