Subject: I'm getting crazy soon...

I already searched through the archives, but still have some problems...

postfix-19991231-pl02 including MYsql support is installed.
The general connection to the DB works ok between postfix and mysql.
Lot's of different domains will run on this machine once it works
properly.

I have no local users in "/etc/passwd" (they are already in a mysql
table including the passwords)
 A typical user/login name looks like "abcd8810netside.de", so I'm
aliasing this to at least one
 readable eMailAddress like "tomnetside.de" (if not more than once...).
But, this works fine only, as long as the user does really exist
 in "/etc/passwd".

How can I additionally let postfix create the Mailfile within
"/var/spool/mail/" for such a user that
isn't available within "passwd", and still let the "aliasing" work ?
