Imail can't create a new view when you add a domain (like it does with a
table), can it?? And, it wouldn't know how to add a new user. You can't add
a new row to a view while still maintaining the view's filters. 

For example, you would have an ImailMasterUsers table with a DomainName
column tacked on at the end, and several Views (domain1_com, domain2_com,
etc_com) that displayed all users for a particular domain (view definition
would be "SELECT * FROM ImailMasterUsers WHERE DomainName = 'domain2.com'").


If Imail tried to add a row into the domain1_com view, it would add it into
the ImailMasterUsers table, but it would insert <NULL> into the DomainName
field.

Am I missing something?

You don't need a rewrite--just use views.
