Re: [webmin-l] Virtualmin + Dovecot

[Adam \Fuzzy\ K. <fu...@fu...>]

With 3000+ users already using use...@do... as their login 
(instead of username.domain) we would rather try and keep it like that.

Is there any way to have dovecot do some kind of re-write on the 
username the user enters when doing IMAP? Kind of like a Postfix virtual 
user map?
