Hello, I just migrated a sendmail system to qmail-ldap with virtual domains. Due to the virtual domain nature of the new structure, my old users would be required to change their POP usernames in their mailers from "username" to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" but, in order to avoid thousands of support calls, I would rather allow them to use the old parameters (of course this is only for the old, pre-qmail, domain. All new domains would obviously require the user to specify the domain as well).
After googling around a bit, I realized that no such thing exists (or my googling skills are really bad) and decided to implement it myself. Since all of my "real" (production) qmail installs have been migrations, I think such a feature could indeed prove useful for many situations like mine. So I'm here, asking to the community: Do you think it's interesting, or was it left out on purpose because it's contrary to something in the Qmail philosophy? If it's interesting I can clean it up a bit and send a patch (it's a bit ugly at the moment, and not even parametric. Ideally it should read the "me" file from the qmail/control directory).
