Okay, I'm looking forward to the rewrite patch... IP based virtual maildomains aren't a good idea... (I don't think RIPE will like this)... I've got about 7000 maildomains here and it would be a horror to give all of them an own address (7000 alias IP addresses, management of used, free, free again etc. addresses)... I think it is a solutions for small companies using up to 50 doamains...
