Really the extract its not a problem ( in fact its the example of the sample
config ) the main problem I have its the ${domain} lack...
So I need to autenticate virtual domain users and dont want to have them all
in the same file, just want to have it in "/etc/exim/domain/passwd" instead
"/etc/exim/passwd" ( I need it to do a trick with teapop and have working
virtual domains in pop3 too )
May be Im totally wrong, is there another elegant way to do virtual domain
smtp authentication ?
