Any workaround for virtual domains/users
Hi-
I am trying to create a user with various aliases
within a domain. But the same user may exist in
another domain. For example,
tony@foo.com
tony@bar.com
Currently any mail to tony@foo.com would also be
received from tony@bar.com. The documentation specfies
that you cannot use a fully qualified email address to
define your user.
How can I define 2 tony users with different domains
w/o running james smtp on diff ports?
Thanks in advance,
tony

Use a JDBCVirtualUserTable mailet. (or xml equivilent)
Set up users like tony%foo.com and tony%bar.com, and map the addresses to
these in the table.
Due to the migration of other companies mail services onto our server, i had
to modify james so that it would handle @ chars in pop/smtp usernames. i did
this by adding strategicly placed code to convert @ into ..at.. which worked
a treat.
Another problem you may have is that you have to define all the domains in
the servernames block. I got round this with a bodge that uses the virtual
users table as well as the servernames in config.xml.
