I'm curious about this one. Why is it necessary? I've got mine set up this
way by coincidence, but I was wondering what this actually does. What
happends if you don't do this - does all email for this username go to the
catchall instead?

And this one makes me curious, too. Does this mean that *all* email
addressed to the server admin is going to a virt domain catchall instead of
me? What, specifically, do I need to do to make sure I get the Admin mail
instead of a virt domain owner getting it?
Still trying to wrap my mind around all the different things the Raq does
weird so I can self-diagnose when something goes bad at 2:00am on Sunday.
