Hi,

I have one server that hosts many apache virtual hosts (vitual domains).
Let'say domain.1, domain.2 and domain.3.
Each webmaster of each domain woul like to have a pop3 account on the
server too.
Therefore, I need to provide 3 email adresses:
webmaster@domain.1
webmaster@domain.2
webmaster@domain.3

#1- If I create an Unix user named webmaster, it will receive the emails
of all these domains. But how to dispatch then? procmail?

#2- Would aliasing be a better solution?
I could create a unix user "foo1" that will receive webmaster@domain.1
emails, "foo2" for webmaster@domain.2 and so on... I would manage it
through the /etc/aliases file... by something like
[...]
webmaster@domain.1 : foo1
webmaster@domain.2 : foo2
[...]

What would be "the" solution?
I use exim 4.34
