I suppose that if you offer 5POPs with a plan, you could up front, assign
all 5 user names sot those POP3 boxes are set up. When setting up the
domain, the site is limited to 5. The siteadmin can then go in and do
anything to those 5 user names. Assign new passwords, change forwarding,
etc. You don't have to worry about new user names as you've already assigned
them. e.g., for www.domain.com user names domainuser1, domainuser2, etc. No
worries about someone creating a user called sales, or info, but they can
add all the aliases they like to have those addresses for one of the user
names.
