Hello, 

I have a situation that I would like clarified.  I have several companies that have 
email hosted through us.  We run 
sendmail and spamassassin and squirrelmail.  The trouble is (and this is no joke) 
there are two "anthony" s, two "Dan" 
s and three "Valerie" s.  All at different companies.  They all want their name as 
their login.  They all feel that they should 
be able to just use their first names, since there is no one AT THEIR COMPANY who has 
the same name.

So.  Multiple Unix user accounts with the same name?  NOPE.

Then here is my problem.  Squirrelmail puts mail in /hom/_____/mail, and points to the 
/home/_____ for other functions,  
I suspect.  Using that logic, I'm headed for disaster if I allow multiple Anthony 
users.

I have the same problem with Spamassassin.  And of course sendmail.

Realizing that this is a Squirrelmail list, I thought I'd just ask if anyone has a 
similar need and how they circumvented the 
hard-coded /home/_____ structures?  I know that there is a plug-in for Squirrelmail 
that allows virtual logins, but I haven't 
had the time to play with it and see if it separates out the directory structure.

This is maddening!
