This is from the website the patch came from.. I am not shure how I would
add this to make the chkuser patch work
any help please ?

TMDA
TMDA needs the straight check of user existance to be widened, allowing any
address like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to be considered valid.
This is an extension of the patch, that allows this behaviour.
user_passwd = vauth_getpw (user.s, domain.s);
+ if (user_passwd == NULL) {
+ count = 0;
+ while ((count < (user.len -1)) && (user_passwd ==
NULL)) {
+ count += byte_chr(&user.s[count], user.len -
count,'-');
+ if (count < user.len) {
+ if (!stralloc_copyb (&alias_name,
user.s, count)) die_nomem();
+ if (!stralloc_0 (&alias_name))
die_nomem();
+ user_passwd = vauth_getpw
(alias_name.s, domain.s);
+ ++count;
+ }
+ }
+ }
if (user_passwd != NULL) {
This code makes a recursive search, starting from left, and looking for each
'-' character, until a valid user is found or string is ended.
Be aware to change the '-' constant to whatever you need for your TMDA
system.
