this is not exactly what I meant, or maybe yes :) in your sample there is
not differences between various domain, i.e. the user info...is it correct
the syntax:
info@domain1:    info.do1
info@domain2:    info.do2 


I here your response "try it" :) but...wha if it doesn't work ? :)

yes, the @, in my linux box, is a valid char for username, the problem is
that exim thinks that the part after @ is the domain :) I tried to change
the way it save the file in the mailbox..I'll try again...

no, this is not what I meant...the problem is, basically, to have many user
with the same local part in the address...
