I don't current run a multi-user server, so I'm not interested in this for personal use, I'm just curious. Qmail's dot qmail system allows a non-privileged user to configure an entire email virtual host. So, for example, I host with csoft.net, which uses qmail as their MTA. They have designated puzzling.org as my virtual host (see http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/incominghost.html#virtual for this). I control all the @puzzling.org that gets delivered to that host via the ~/.qmail* files in my homedir. So qmail is useful if you want to let non-privileged users configure their own virtual hosts without any need for a privileged user to do anything except the initial setup. Is there are way to do this with Postfix? -Mary -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
