You now have the tools to work more easily with virtual than
shell... *especially* if you need to support multiple domains.

That said, so long as it has router/transport sets for them,
Exim will also handle 'all of the above ' - shell and system
alias 'users', as generally needed for 'all-hosted-domain'
postmaster(s), etc.

Less new work, perhaps.

But there are examples available of building quota checks into
Exim that do not require or use fs quotas. Not all servers have
quota support installed anyway. Even so, it may be safer/easier
to grant rights to set/alter same via a DB than via shell.

ACK. Or so they begin life .. You may also want to install
chkrootkit and rkhunter and chron them.

ACK. We select which and where on a per-user basis within our DB.


*trimmed*

Looks like you are making progress.... ;-)
