I was hoping through a virtual user table.

lol, too much coding ;)

I have done this on other servers, but I wanted to get away from the
creation of users all together on the local system.

Just checked out QMail since I wasn't havning good luck with Sendmail.  
They have a virtual pop server :)  Seems to be just what I need.  Also
found a nice interface for it at:

If I can't find anything similar for SinMail, I'm dumping it and going 
with QMail :)
