It is possible to creat an external authentication mechanism that 
determines where your mailbox is.

We will be in the unenviable position of having to supply 5 different 
mailstores for our user community.
The powers that be woul like a single mechanism of login/password - that 
would then determine what
the mailbox would be based on a DB lookup - likely to an Oracle DB.
This effectively replaces the servers.php file or at leats adds an 
additional step - pull back the information.

Has anyone done this? Or does the idea not have merit in light of the 
fact that another server stanza can be added
easily.

thanks in advance
