Re: Maintaining server names list automatically? Virtual hosting

To my understanding the patch  
(http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-426) works fine against a 
jdbc connected VirtualUserTable. Daniel points out that it should also 
connect to stores as xmlVirtualUserTable and others. I agree to that. 
But such could be road mapped.

However it will not be implemented in any release soon as it isn't on 
the slate for 2.3.0. or 3.0.

Unless, it gets votes (as I understand it).

Regards,

Pierre
