this is a lot easier!

Is there a way to have dovecot 'tack on' a default @domain.name if the user
submits a username only?

for example, if the user submits "joe" (instead of joe at qcislands.net),
dovecot tries /home/VIRTUAL//joe    /mail/VIRTUAL//joe

I would like a 'default' of /home/VIRTUAL/qcislands.net/joe  etc

thanks!
