Hi Christian,

yes, this should be possible.

Off the top of my head, I think that this can be achieved by
using a regular expression popmap along the lines of:

--- begin /etc/perdition/popmap.re ---
(.*): [email protected]@localhost
--- end /etc/perdition/popmap.re ---

Where localhost is the name of the real-server that perdition should
connect to.

You will need the following configuration options set when you invoke
perdition.

map_library /usr/lib/libperditiondb_posix_regex.so.0
map_library_opt /etc/perdition/popmap.re
username_from_database
