I'm not sure this is what the original poster's talking about because 
he mentioned the default user page and what it says. But, since your 
describe your workaround, there's a simpler way to do this. This is 
for Raq3; I've no idea if it works this way for other machines.

You sent up one site for that client. Put all their users on it.Then 
set your mx records this way:

domain.com -------> domain.com

(no hostname at all just the domain to itself).

In the settings for the website, just click "email for this domain" 
or whatever your machine's GUI uses to have the site pick up the 
domain's email. Your users will receive email as user@xxxxxxxxxx, can 
use that return address and, barring blocks from their ISP's, they'll 
be able to send it through that domain as well.

Saves you an extra created site and is much simpler.
