I'm not sure it's that simple.  If you use the example that provided in the 
original request;  user logs in as john , what would you like squrrelmail to 
do?  The login would have to become [EMAIL PROTECTED] to permit SM to 
distinguish between the two choices.

ALso, virtusertable can point to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . And SM should 
do what?

The file is of the general form;

user@domain     localuser

but can also be

@domain         localuser       #anyuser goes to localuser
@domain2        error: "Error mesage"   #smtp server provides error message
user@domain3    otheruser@domain4       #message is forwarded by sendmail
