Re: [cobalt-users] Multiple domains on one site

Jens,

Yes, when you enable the catch-all address on a RaQ3, it accepts the mail for
ALL USERS on that domain, but here's the good part: it does not accept mail
for defined aliases on that domain.  So, if you have user joe@xxxxxxxxxxx mail
to that address will be grabbed by the catch-all.  But, if you have an alias
for joe called Joe.Blow@xxxxxxxxxxx, the Joe.Blow address will receive mail
properly and put it in joe's mailbox.

BTW, your catch-all alias should be @host.domain.com not just @domain.com

Weird but true.  Hopefully Cobalt will cure this problem soon...
