Why would you ever need a different form of integration? 1) As I understand you describe integration *without* support for cyrus virtual domains (user@xxxxxxxxxxx, user@xxxxxxxxxxx). 2) Methods you suggest do not give a chance to reject messages to over quota mailboxes *in SMTP session*. RTCyrus3 will use information received via socket map query to deliver it. -- [pl2en: Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : anfi@xxxxxxxxxxxx : anfi@xxxxxxxx Home site: http://anfi.homesite.net/ ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
