VMailMgr−HOWTO
VMailMgr (short for Virtual MAIL ManaGeR) is a package of programs designed to manage multiple
domains of mail addresses and mailboxes on a single host. It co−operates with qmail for mail delivery and
program control.
1.1 What is VMailMgr and why should I use it?
VMailMgr is:
A series of utilities for managing virtual domains which include a password checking interface for qmail
which replaces the usual checkpassword, and an authentication module for Courier IMAP, that provide
access to the virtual mailboxes by one of three methods:
·
IP−based virtual server access (invisible to the POP3 user)
·
username−based access (username−virtualuser)
·
hostname−based access (virtualuser@virtual.host or virtualuser:virtual.host)
You should use it if:
You prefer to have each domain controlled by a seperate username, allowing the use of system quotas and
better security
