Hallo List Users,
I am curious if there is a way to rewrite domain name to another domain
name. My goal is to provide authentication and mailboxes for the synonymous
domains in a single source while keeping all other domains separate.
I have setup:
auth_username_format = %Lu
mail_location = /var/vmail/%d/%u/Maildir
in userdb/passdb (passwd-file):
/etc/dovecot/%d/users
Say I have two synonymous domain names
my-domain-1.com
my-long-named-domain-1.com
I want both to resolve to my-domain-1.com when %d variable is used in
Dovecot configs, so that
passwd-file is /etc/dovecot/my-domain-1.com/users
mailbox is /var/vmail/my-domain-1.com/user/Maildir
while keeping other domains unchanged
my-other-domain-2.com
should resolve to:
passwd-file is /etc/dovecot/my-other-domain-2.com/users
mailbox is /var/vmail/my-other-domain-2.com/user/Maildir
thanks,
Nikolai

If you use the same file for both passdb and userdb, symlink just this single file. Then add the "user" ExtraField to all users in passdb and userdb.

Hallo Thanks for your reply. I thought about using symlinks, i do not like this solution. Anyway, it is acceptable for paths to passdb/userdb. Thanks for the hits about user=xxx ! I will use it for paths to mail directories. Thanks again!
