Most users also expect to add/remove domains via management interfaces.
JPADomainList could be shipped as default if we want to cover users' expectations.

Hi,
We also need to cover James used as simple MTA/mail-relay/honeypot without
any users defined (for example, in an internal network when processing mails
for virus/spam detection,...).
In this case, we could use in this case the "localhost" domain.

I'm also in favor of having only the virtualhosting enabled. I guess this
would simply lead to remove this notion from code/conf.
In anyone needs the "old" behaviour then he just need to add a rewrite
for the recipient (.*)@(.*) =>  $...@defaultdomain as the first mailet. I
think everything is easier to understand this way (not sure if we
already provide a good way to do this rewrite easily, but we can
create a simple mailet if we don't already have something usable).

I thought a bit about it and I think the rewrite stuff would work once
the email is spooled. But there is still the problem with
authentication (SMTP/POP3/IMAP). The user will need to login with
u...@domain as username. Not really a problem but maybe confuse
people, but I guess if we document it it would be enough...

Bye
Norman

After thinking a bit more about it I think Stefano is right.. we
should just use virtualhosting by default. Which also will force users
contain a domain part in the username.

It's prolly the thing most of users look for anyway and for all others
we can add a Mailet which do the mapping.

Bye,
Norman
