Well, okay, I was thinking about a way to not duplicate the message to everyone's mailbox. And I guess with virtual mailboxes there's the problem that users can't then delete the message (or it gets deleted for everyone).
How about you write one copy of the message, then hard link it to everyone else's mailbox. I think that's what vpopmail's vpopbull command does. To each recipient it looks like they have a personal copy that they can delete, but there is only one copy of the data stored on disk.
One limitation, all mailboxes have to be on the same mount point.
