Trust me, you really DON'T want to have multiple administrators
messing with
the data at the same time as the number of problems resulting from
this kind of stuff is indefinite. It's hard enough to get RDBMS
backed
solutions working correctly over the web and the vast majority of
code
which is marketed as multi user capable really breaks if two people
are operating on the same sets of data at the same time. The only
thing that could be done in a halfway safe way (i.e. user can at most
destroy his own account which the admin can fix afterward) is to
allow
NORMAL users to change their pws while someone else is working with
the system.

It basically says what I said. AFAIK, the code I was referring to
isn't
yet integrated so it is safe to delete the postmasters and AFAIK it's
still allowed in the pre5 and perhaps always will be although I still
think is a bad thing TM.
Ken if Bill may introduce new features before 5.0 is released,
couldn't
you introduce my patch too (cause I'm building some code that relies
on some form (I don't care too much which one) of vaddaliasdomain()
being present)?
Best regards,
Gabriel
