[imp] virtual users and their from addys...

[Daniel Frazier]

anyone?  I've been playing with various hooks for the last 3 days, but
the specifics of what variables I need to be modifying are eluding me...
I've gotten the from address to show as "virtuser%virtdomain@" by
unsetting the maildomain in imp/config/servers.php, but that's no good.
It needs to be "virtuser at virtdomain" so my users don't complain...  I'll
keep plugging away, but would really, really appreciate some guidance
from someone who knows what they're doing.

thanks in advance..
