Michael,
Thanks for the information.

Now after examining the virtusertable I have entries like this:
@www.domainname.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  username

I have two raq2's and these appear everywhere in the file of one. (The
server I am having problems with). I only use the GUI when it comes to
changing/adding/etc anything to do with email accounts.

I have a raq3 that this line appears everywhere in the virtusertable file.
Now I have some customers complaining that the raq3 is not recieving mail
for any aliases.

Any ideas on where these lines come from?

Thanks,
Rich
