Hi.
I know the solution with domain as prefix, but I see it as a design
flaw, in web-cyradm.

From:
http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/install-virtdomains.html:

"Fully qualified userid - the client logs in with a userid containing
the domain in which the user belongs (e.g., t...@example.com or
test%example.net)

Then the mailboxes should be callled user.usern...@myvirtdomain.tld
and the virtual_maps shoud contain usern...@myvirtdomain.tld in all
fields, except
status.

the Accountuser table should contain usern...@myvirtdomain.tld as username.

Then the salsauthd should be started with -r -a pam as flags, so that
the host part of the username does not get interpreted as a realm.

This setup does work for me on Freebsd 7.2. However I do not have much
use of web-cyradm as it is.

I think the above solution is better because the users have their
email-addresses as
username, and in webmail clients for instance horde/imp the default
from address is the correct emailaddress.

I'm considering to "fork" web-cyradm, and write a perl version, since
perl is what I know
best, but I would like to hear the opinion of this list...

Is their a need for a new web-cyradm effort, or does people like the
domainasprefix
solution?
