That had occurred to me. However, I'm only planning to match rcpthosts that conform to a specific pattern ( valet.* ), which considerably reduces the potential usefulness to a spammer (or am I missing something)? If there is a problem I can incorporate an automatic DNS-based check. -- Nick Kew

Mass virtual hosting with qmail
I'm looking for a mass-virtual-hosting patch for qmail: (1) Has anyone written such a thing? (2) If not, does anyone else think it would be useful for me to write one? In more detail, my requirement is for mass hosting at valet.webthing.com (see http://valet.webthing.com/ for a preview). I propose to offer a co-branding scheme, under which resellers set up valet.some-domain.com as a CNAME for my server, and offer the Site Valet service at their own domain. Hence I want qmail to accept mail for users @valet.[anything] and deliver deliver locally to valet-hostname-username (where my own program will deal with it). I don't want to have to add anything to rcpthosts (or morercpthosts), locals or virtualdomains for every domain. -- Nick Kew

You might want to check this message from the qmail archive: http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1999/08/msg01079.html It talks about using cbd database for storing this information.

Hello: Yes, I am also interested in hearing the list's view on this. My /var/qmail/users/cdb file is at 20M+. I have 200K+ virtual users and I am wondering if I should move away from the file based approach. Is there a patch that will use a database (postgres/mysql) for looking up virtual users instead of the cdb file? Anyone else facing the same issues?? Regards -- Burzin
Mass virtual hosting
Dear List, I want to setup 30,000+ virtual domains. Is there any performance problems with this large virtualdomains and rcpthosts files? Or is there any way to avoid using these files? The domains are of the same format: *.mydomain.com. -- Mojahed
