Hi all,

I have recently been made aware of a facinating feature on out Linux box
(which I did not set up).

It seems that the box is set up with vpop3d, procmail and sendmail so that
there may be multiple POP users with the same name, example:

joe@domain1.com
joe@domain2.com
joe@domain3.com

These are NOT virtmaps, but rather real (or virtual) pop boxs made possible
by mapping the whole username, (i.e. joe@domain2.com). It appears that the
mailer uses the mailertable to map the domain to the correct Linux user
directory,m then procmail maps the mail to a file. Later, the user can log
in using a complete address (again, joe@domain2.com) and vpop3d will get his
mail from that directory.

I have been googling my eyes out and can't find anytihng  similar for
FreeBSD (4.4).

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

I am currently using:

FreeBSD 4.4
Sendmail
Drac
procmail (for Spamassassin and Virus control)
QPOPPER 4.0.4
Single IP addy.
On a 1GHz Dell.

TIA,

-Grant
