The IP addresses are on "Server A" because that is where the virtual web
servers are.
The DNS hosts file db.hostname.com.hosts for each virtual domain has a MX
entry pointing to the default mail domain as referred to in Emerald.
computnet.com. IN MX 10 ntsvr11.ficom.net.
The MailSite mail server is on "Server B" for performance reasons. It would
not be practical or possible to have all virtual domain IP addresses bound
to one physical server that houses the mail server.

All users in Emerald are under one group "Dialup Users" which has the
default domain listed "ficom.net". I know I can probably create a new group
with a different default mail domain, but then I will have to make a lot of
other changes as well.

I added the alias in Emerald on the "Services\Aliases and Forwards" Tab. If
I have a a entry in the Emerald Login Field named "joe" and run
verifymailuser it will return "ficom.net" as the maildomain. If I add a
alias for joe of joe@domain2.com verifymailuser will return a maildomain of
domain2.com.
What I am trying to do is come up with the simplest, most efficient means
of setting up virtual mail domains for our virtual domains using Emerald
and MailSite. I would appreciate any suggestions.
