Yes, that is possible, but then I have to setup a user piffle, and his
.qmail file has to filter the mailadresses and deliver the mail to the
correct local user. I think this is too much work and a kind of
inconsistency.
If aI have only [EMAIL PROTECTED], then I would do it this way
with an entry in virtualdomains like his.virtual.domin:someuser or alike.
But I have (virtually ;-) a big network of hosts, and everyone has the
same users (over NIS). I think it is more easier with one line in locals
like ^(.*\.){0,1}mydomain.net$ than the construct mentioned above.
