Do you know mail is a multi valued attribute and - if there are no external circumstances - you do not need an extra attribute for a second mail address? > I plan to use the Lachman LDAP Mail Routing Draft [1] and schema. > > Should I create in Cyrus IMAP two virtual domains and a 'valentin' user > for each > of this domains or would it be better to create a user 'valentin' where > to post > the E-Mail messages I receive on both domains?

For my private mail I do so. I have different domains, but want it in my only inbox. So my domains are virtual _in Postfix_ not in IMAPd. If you have an object with something like mail: valentin@xxxxxxxxxxx mail: valentin@xxxxxxxxxxx mail: foo@xxxxxxx maildrop: valentin Postfix can send mail for all addresses (mail) included in the object to the user valentin (maildrop) in IMAPd.
