If you want everything to authenticate via the full email address, then
remove all the domains from locals. Any mail for a domain in locals has the
domain stripped from it before authentication. So get the domains out of
locals and just use hosteddomains.

Subject: RE: [courier-users] 550 User unknown (userdb esmtp
authentication)
Guys, I thank you for all your help. I have managed to make it work by test
and trials.
The problem was that userdb entry vma...@colt.net was being stripped and
thats why it wasnt
authenticating. I have removed @colt.net from this line and now it works.
1/ Questions though, how come for my system a/c (users that exist in
/etc/passwd) the mail gets delivered to "cur" folder in Maildir.
But for Virtual users, it gets delivered to "new" folder in Maildir?
2/ How do I get the whole vma...@colt.net authenticating, maybe I'm being
silly by adding something extra in one of the config files?
Rgrds
Ali.
