spamass-milter and multiple local domains
I have several local domains that resolve (via virtual) to local users in addition to virtual domains that resolve to sql users.
with spamass-milter, these secondary local domains (like kreme.com) fail to find the user:
spamd: handle_user (userdir) unable to find user: 'kremels@kreme.com’
Other than converting these other domains to mysql virtual domains, is there anyway that I can get certain domains to simply pass ‘user’ while other domains pass ‘user@domain.tld’?
Since I have more than one of these domains, I can’t just use the -e flag.

spamd can't automagically "find" users unless you tell it to via
switches, at startup.
http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.4.x/doc/spamd.txt
either
-q, --sql-config Enable SQL config (needs -x)
--ldap-config Enable LDAP config (needs -x)
-virtual-config-dir=dir Enable pattern based Virtual configs
(needs -x)
etc....

Yes, it sort of grew that way over time as I started with only local users many years ago even as I added domains before switching new domains over to a SQL setup. I suppose I should move all the accounts to SQL but there are several issues with that on some accounts.

Well, it is using -u and e flags to process the mail as the user, but when it checks for the user ‘kremels@kreme.com’ it can’t find it, because the user is ‘kremels’. The SQL users show up just fine.

These are real users. It’s just that spamass-milter is only setup to look at one local domain and assumes that all other users will be user@domain.tld.
Basically, the milter runs before the virtual expansion done by postfix. If I could run the milter after postfix checked virtual there wouldn’t be an issue, but I suspect that the virtual check is considerably later in the transaction phase and that I can’t change that ordering.

you must have a strange setup
normally the milter uses a global bayes and settings living in the
milter-users home (given the milter service and spamd are running as the
same users) and hence it don't need to know anything about users
postfix needs to know and would reject non existing email long before
the milter and milters job is just pass or reject messages
