hello guys ;) I'm using cyrus-imap + cyrus-sasl + postfix as my mail system it works fine but I need to add an account with a dot in the name (e.g. mario.pavlov@domain) and I don't know how to do that I'm using cyradm for creating mailboxes.. can anyone help me, please ?
While it's common in *addresses*, it's arguably bad practice to include dots in *accounts* (it's achievable, but not reliably portable). FWIW, I handle these as aliases to a simpler account name (either in the aliases file or in $virtual_alias_maps).
For example, my /etc/postfix/virtual might contain this: mario@xxxxxxxxxxx mario mario.pavlov@xxxxxxxxxxx mario ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
