What you are doing looks like it will work for me.  But could you give
me more details?  I assume you now set up mailboxes in the admin tool
using:

adduser [EMAIL PROTECTED] password

right?

This means that now you have add/modify a mailet to know to send it a
box by this name rather than a box named "user".  How do you do that?

What kind of patch did you have to make to James as you referred to?

Finally, does this work with file store as well as database store?

Thanks.

Jerry

This is true, pop3/smtp dont have a hostname header - but they do have a
to
address and a login - so you can work it out.

Incoming mails have a hostname in the to address.... (unless you're
accepting mails to an ip.... which i think you have to do without).

Logging into server - use [EMAIL PROTECTED] as the username.

This works effectively for me. (note you have to patch james's code to
work
around not beign able to have @s in usernames)

With very little effort james does provide a good virtual hosting
solution.

Btw, i have been working with a modified version of latest stable james.
I
havnt checked out the cvs verion of james - what new virtual hosting
features will be added? Will i still have to patch it to convert "@'s"
to
"..at.." and also add code for treating any domains in virtual host
table as
local?

Daniel.

      Yes I'm going to do it, I've already done it once, and lost it in
an
      hdd crash :-(
      I'm waiting until Noel's merged our two main branches, and will
      probably be implementing JNDI for resource lookups first.

      You should be aware that IP based Vhosting *is* fairly
      straightforward, but name based vhosting isn't as there is no
      equivalent in POP or IMAP to http's "Hostname" header for telling
us
      what name you're trying to get.
