I don't own a RaQ3, but I thought you could use at least an attempt at help
if it came very quickly.

As I've read, the reason is that users are universal; aliases then belong to
individual domains. You should ensure that usernames don't actually match
email addresses, otherwise one user "bruce" will receive mail for all
"bruce" email addresses on the system.
Make Bruce Smith at GotDemi.com your user "bs.d1" (Bruce Smith, Domain 1),
then assign him the email address "bruce@xxxxxxxxxxx" as an alias. Make your
user Bruce Wayne at Batcave.com your user "bw.d2" (Bruce Wayne, Domain 2),
then assign him the email address "bruce@xxxxxxxxxxx" as an alias.
This way all mail should arrive correctly. But if Bruce Smith is user
"bruce" and Bruce Wayne is user "bwayne", then Smith will get his mail and
Wayne's too.
Does that make sense? And by the way, can the rest of the list check to see
if I'm right or wrong? Still learning here...
