    I would like to move from a Windows NT (ack!) based email system using
    Ipswitch Imail to a *BSD/Postfix system, and am looking for advice from
    those who have been down this path before.

    The first thing that I need to get my noggin around is the best way to setup
    users on multiple domains on the same machine.
    Under IMail, the user "webmaster" could be a separate user account on one
    domain than the "webmaster" user on another domain on the same server given
    that user/passwords are not part of the OS, but are part of the email
    software...and I do mean users (user id and password) and not aliases. SO
    the first question is how do organizations with many domains deal with that
    on *BSD...what kind of user naming convention do most of you use for
    similiar users on the same system. If these were normal users, aliases
    would suffice, but we also have 3rd party email tracking software that logs
    into the various webmaster, info, tech, etc accounts for processing...

    My next question is of availability and redundancy...one of the reason to
    upgrade is to move to a redundant 2 server system...what is the best way to
    achive this overall goal? I remember an article or two here and there about
    hoq Qwest or UUNet or someone accomplishes this..anyone got any good links
    to HOWTOs on that kind of project?

    Thanks,
    -=Chris
