    Yes, this is no different from any other alias or virtual setup that
    offers multiple addresses to individual users. You would handle this in
    the MTA. For example, I use virtual_alias_maps with Postfix, and map all
    addresses to the corresponding cyrus IMAP user:

                      admin
                      admin
                      admin
                      bob
              bob

    You can also use the aliases file and other approaches.
