> It's  absolutely  true  that  MXs  should  be  able  to

> initial SMTP envelope.

> One  option  is a script that manually synchronizes a user 
> list on the mailbox  server  with an alias list on the MX; 
> this is the method used by  IMGate  users  and  those  
> fronting  Exchange with IMail using the script  in  my  sig.  
> Another  is  real-time  synchronization  using a low-overhead 
>  directory  protocol  like LDAP; we prefer this option. A 
> third  option  is  automatic  LDAP "pull" synchronization 
> with a local cache  for  detached  use.  And,  yes,  a  
> fourth  option  is manually maintaining  the alias database 
> whenever you make adds/changes/deletes to  the  user  
> database;  distasteful  though  this  may  seem, if the 
> userbase  is  small  enough  to keep the hours manageable, 
> this is far better than letting everything through.
