I have read the documentation but not found the right part, how to forward $USER to a specific mbox-server.
You can do this with a combination of carefully setting up the domain configuration files, and mail aliases.
A simple configuration using two servers:
Server eu1.example.com: esmtpacceptmailfor contains eu1.example.com and example.com; hosteddomains contains eu1.example.com; existing mail accounts are: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Server eu2.example.com: esmtpacceptmailfor contains eu2.example.com and example.com; hosteddomains contains eu2.example.com; mail accounts are: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Common mail aliases:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Either server can receive mail for any account; if necessary mail will be forwarded to the other server.
The mail clients will have to be set up to log in via IMAP/POP3, or authenticate via SMTP as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", etcâ, plus the appropriate password. If desired, the authentication database can be augmented with additional records "user1", "user2", etcâ, so that the mail clients can login using the userid portion only, of their E-mail address.
