G'day,
I'm making the long, long overdue migration to postfix from an ancient
Sendmail setup that's using virtual domains and real-time username
checks against a Cyrus mail spool (no local UNIX accounts).
I've done a lot of googling and found a few different howtos that mostly
agree, but I have some questions.
Firstly, the doco I've read suggests that every mailbox needs an entry
in the virtual_mailbox_maps file, with my current sendmail setup
sendmail checks against Cyrus for if a mailbox exists and has no (or at
least not very many, and they're aliases etc) direct lists of email
addresses. Does Postfix require a list of all email addresses or can it
pull this from cyrus in realtime like Sendmail does (means I can admin
it mostly just using cyradm). The realtime sendmail integration is from
here :

If I'm using unix domain separators (/) for cyrus's virtual domains, how
do I tell Postfix about this? My Cyrus usernames are user/f...@bar.com
Is there anyone out there with a working cyrus, virtual domains and
postfix setup (there must be 100's!) who's got a solid howto somewhere?
The one on the postfix website is blank :

thank you
