I'm using Qmail+Cyrus+SASL ... it's virtual accounts with virtual users and
seems to be supporting multiple boxes one multiple domains. Here is a short
list of what got Qmail+Cyrus up and running ...
1.) Any Cyrus+SASL HOWTO will work for compiling instructions
2.) Add qmail to the mail group (not sure how secure this is but it fixed
a lot of problems)
3.) Make sure /usr/cyrus and /var/imap are chown'd cyrus.mail (I overlooked
this initially)
4.) I had to support and on the same machine
and preferably with the same codebase so I created a simple script that
I put in my .qmail-vhost-default files that rewrites info and passes the
email off to deliver.
5.) I create accounts like this:
1.) echo password | saslpasswd -p username
2.) create the inbox using username_domain_tld
3.) point mail.domain.tld to my mail frontend (squirrel) and modified my
php frontend to convert to username_domain_tld.
4.) The above script in the .qmail-vhost-default file takes the To: header
and simply replaces @ and . with _ and passes it on to deliver.
The one drawback is no .'s or _'s in usernames ... but when I get a customer
that has more than the combination of numbers, letters and -'s I'll worry about
that :)
With a decent SAN this should scale to support many, many, many users - and
the best part is it does it from one code base :)
