Hello all, I have a lot of email addresses of the form mbYYMMDD@ (just like the one I'm sending from here). They're unique to a specific site/purpose and have accumulated over nearly 20 years.
My current windows-based MSA allows the MUA user "ml-postfix-users" to login and receive emails using the above email address. I'm only using POP3/SMTP and outbound is all from the MSA via postfix. To ease migration from the Windows server to Dovecot I would like to be able to keep the MUA using the existing user names, rather than manually editing every MUA account manually. I can't figure out how to do this username-emailaddress mapping with Dovecot, so I'm looking at using virtual in postfix. Here's what I have so far. main.cf includes: # Route inbound for valid recipients to dovecot virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp virtual_mailbox_domains = pjb.cc virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/vmailbox virtual_alias_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual lmtp_use_tls = no vmailbox contains: mb170...@pjb.cc ml-postfix-users # +LOTS of others virtual contains: @pjb.cc all The Dovecot users file includes: ml-postfix-us...@pjb.cc:,<passwordstuff>:10043:10000: Hoping someone here can tell me whether I'm on the right track with the above or (perhaps more likely) that I'm going about this in entirely the wrong way. -- Thanks, Phil
