SquirrelMail uses the IMAP username for all matters. It looks like maybe in your case, that's "joe". Is that how the user logs in - just "joe"? Are you using the Login Manager (vlogin) plugin? I will assume not since you didn't say so. I'm not sure why you'd go to the trouble of setting up a virtual user system where IMAP usernames are of the form "joe". Now what if you want to have a "joe" account for a different virtual domain?? The best and most fundamental fix is to reevaluate your mail system architecture. Virtual accounts should always include the domain name in them: "joe@xxxxxxxxxxx" (identical to the email address). To "fix" the problem you are having without changing your mail system (bah), you can go to Options->Personal Information and make sure the correct address is put in the email field. If you want to automate this for all your users, there are plugins to help with that, and you can also configure SM to lock out the user's ability to edit that field, so what the plugin puts there sticks. There may be another issue, however, in that usually SM will append the $domain value to outgoing usernames that are in the form "joe". So you may not have $domain set correctly in the SM configuration (see the config/config.php file or use the configuration utility, option 2, item 1). Finally, if you have a known mapping for what users are in which domains, you could make your MTA append the correct domain, as it ALSO seems to be misconfigured as to what domain it thinks it is in. It looks to me like your MTA configuration is half-baked, so what I'd suggest is that you take a second look at it first, get help for it in the correct community if you need, and THEN try it with SquirrelMail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
