What you don't mention is where your virtual users are kept - MySQL? LDAP? A common approach is to have the user data in a database and just set postfix up to use courier-maildrop as your LDA. Then maildrop can be configured to query the user database for a home directory, which you point at the above-mentioned location. Courier_vacation plugin has some at least partial hints on how to set up maildrop config file to then use it for vacation stuff. Together with info easily found via Google for maildrop, you are good to go. - paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
