Not completely true, you can use --enable-ip-alias-domains=y and use the
vipmap to have the simple username authentication.

You only need one pop3 server running, it will answer all pop3 requests.
When you have multiple domains, you use the [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
authenticate and that is how pop3 knows which user at which domain is trying
to get access. You can only use the username only authentication for one
domain (you must compile vpopmail with --enable-default-domain=mydomain.com.
Check this option in the docs for the right syntax). All other domains will
have to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] to authenticate.
