Hi,

I'm not sure that I understand what your desired setup is.
Do you want users to be able to log in as either username or username@blah?
If so, do the real-servers only recovnise users when they log in as
username but not username@blah?

end-user               perdition          real-server
-------> username@blah --------> username ----------|
or
------->   username    --------> username ----------|

If so, have you tried setting strip_domain=remote_login or strip_domain=all
in conjunction with domain_delimiter=@ ?
