RE: problem with admin-user
i solved the problem. the domain name was automatically appended because of a misconfiguration in /etc/hosts. /etc/hosts before: 127.0.0.1 mail.domain.com localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.35mail.domain.com mail /etc/hosts after: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.35mail.domain.com mail now i can login as user cyrus and can administer all domains with one user again and the domain name isn´t appended anymore. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Philippe Trolliet Sent: Freitag, 1.

My comments may be completely irrelevant for you, because I don't use saslauthd, pam, mysql, virtdomains, or (shudder) Fedora Core, but are you sure you need the extra complexity? For example, I host mail for many different domains, but manage them under a single (portable) realm, with a single admin user. Users have no knowledge of the realm, and it isn't required for logins (which means I have the extra burden of keeping all logins unique). I just need to set the defaultdomain in imapd.conf, and add every user to sasldb2 as a member of that realm (I'm aware you're not using sasldb2, but maybe your realm issue is related). I did this because I prefer bare logins. Although logins with appended realms have a certain logical appeal, I think it would still cause issues with users who don't understand realms. A bare login and password is easier to understand and explain, especially when multiple addresses are aliased to a single account. But I digress. If you're tied to your current system, this won't be of much help to you.
