virtusertable<


B. assume you want to alias dave@freebsdhelp.org to other FOREIGN user on other server:

virtusertable>

virtusertable<


C. assume you want to alias all emails coming on freebsdhelp.org to one LOCAL user and
   still you want your admin@freebsdhelp.org and dave@freebsdhelp.org works:

admin@freebsdhelp.orgj     ohn
dave@freebsdhelp.org       dave@yahoo.com
@freebsdhelp.org               big

virtusertable<

admin@freebsdhelp.org       john
dave@freebsdhelp.org       dave@yahoo.com
@freebsdhelp.org               big@kuwaitnet.net
