Ah, that's an idea, but I think in this case moving the domain into the
sql DB is the way to go.

the mysql users use user at domain.tld to login. The users for the domain
will have to update their login information.

Procmail and dovecot have not gotten along very well for me, so I am not
moving the accounts that need procmail. I can get it to work, but it is
far more fragile than just regular procmail with local user LDA.

These are not system users (that is, system users are @covisp.net) but
they map to system users. for example, one of the accounts is
info at example.com but maps to the local user user-example.
Thanks for the reply, I think this is doable.
