Glenn,

I'm not sure what you are saying, but in my case this is not correct.  I get all mail to my user name for any of my 7 domains and can reply anyway I wish.

I only have (1) primary mail_account defined for my user_name -- The other (6) addresses are set-up as "additional E-mail Addresses" as described (they are not are not real boxes) -- all mail flows to my user's mailbox.

Replies are handled from OSX 10.2.4 client; the mail shows up in my primary box, when I reply it is sent from the proper user@domainX; no hint to the recipient otherwise.

...nice feature!

You need to ensure that you set the mail account as follows:

From Address Rewrite Style:

none -- (leave as written by user agent)

Huh?  I thought we are talking about one user with multiple domains (?)
