I do two different things, for two different servers.

One server, all the extra domains are really just domains used by the 
same main domain (such as .com, .net, and other varients of our domain 
name we have registered). For that server, I just map all the domains 
back to the main one

domain2.com = domain1.com

Then all the mail is treated as if it was for the main domain. The 
downside is, you can't have duplicate addresses. So I can only have one 
"webmaster" address and similar. For this set, that's fine, since they 
are all really for the same domain/company.

I have a 2nd server where the lack of duplicate addresses is a problem. 
On my other server, I host domains for other people and groups. What I do 
here is map a domain to a "key" that is used for all accounts for that 
domain.

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = domain1-*
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = domain2-*

As far as the outside world is concerned, there isn't anything special 
going on. Email addresses look and act like normal, so you would address 
things to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] But on the 
server side those addresses end up being sent to domain1-webmaster and 
domain2-webmaster.

The downside to this is that people collecting their email have to know 
that their POP username is now domain1-webmaster instead of just 
webmaster. So far no one has complained or had a problem with it, but I 
can see that maybe some people could get confused as to why their logon 
username is different then their email address.
