I think there is (like so often) more than one way to solve the
problem. The first way is to create only a forwarder in the homedir of
the virtual domain (i.e. /home/vpopmail/domains/cust-dom.com). So for
jill there should be a file .qmail-jill with one line
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Qmail would then forward all incoming mail to the mentioned account at
real-dom.com which probably is a maildir on the same host.
If this is not what you want the second way is to create a real user in
your virtual domain and let the user pop the account in the common
way. You can then add a forwarder for this virtual user as well but I
think that's more complicate than the first way.
You should try to use the qmailadmin-package, its a really nice
cgi-interface to your virtualdomain-administration.
