How to configure same name on different domain for differnet users?

[quote user="aka_bigred"]

I'm trying to figure out how to configure M32 to use the same name, say admin but for different users on different domains.  I want to have 3 users named "admin" - each one a unique user/mailbox on each domain.  Here's my example:

    admin@mydomain1.com --> Tom Jone's Mailbox

    admin@myotherdomain.com --> John Smith's Mailbox

    admin@onelastdomain.com --> Jane Smith's Mailbox 

If I understand the documentation correctly, M32 is setup so that all users are automatically setup with same account across all domains.  When I setup the local user "admin", I get:

    admin@mydomain1.com --> Tom Jone's Mailbox

    admin@myotherdomain.com --> Tom Jone's Mailbox

    admin@onelastdomain.com --> Tom Jone's Mailbox

 

How can I setup M32 for the first scenario with the same external username across multiple domains but different users. ?

You need to use aliases.  Create three users admin, admin2, and admin3.  You then alias admin@myother domain.com to admin2@myotherdomain.com and admin@mylastdomain.com to admin3@myotherdomain,com

 You can also make these usernames something like admin_dom1 is you wish to make them more specific to the domain.

I'm also looking at a slight variation - have a user setup on only selected domains, and not all of them.

    TomJones@mydomain1.com --> Tom Jone's Mailbox

    TomJones@myotherdomain.com --> 550 - Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
