in reply to Sendmail + perl?

I use Postfix and configure it to deliver email with no other logical destination to a .forward Perl script which is written with Mail::Audit so that I can do fancy logic about post-processing and redirection to final destinations.

You might even find that you don't need to use Perl, but that Postfix directly supports the type of multiple accounts per user you want to provide.

Update: Use Email::Filter instead of Mail::Audit per the author's documentation.

    There is a Mail::Filter module on CPAN too. How those two Mail::Audit and Mail::Filter compare?

      Mail::Filter doesn't do at all the same thing, but since you made me go look, I see that Mail::Audit has been replaced by Email::Filter. Both are written by the same author (Simon Cozens) and Mail::Audit documentation has a comment that Email::Filter should be used instead.

      Looks like I have a conversion project to add to my todo list.
