[techtalk] pine and virtual domains

[Makiko Itoh]

We have a small server (literally...it's a Cobalt RaQ, Redhat Linux 
7, etc)  hosting about 15 virtual domains/sites at the moment. We 
have this one user who for (I quote) "religious reasons" wants to be 
able to check and send out mail on the server itself, via pine, and 
refuses to use an email client on his personal puter.

Reading messages is fine, but when he attempts to send out messages, 
pine wants to see a user at originaldomainname (of the server) rather 
than user at virtualdomain, and since it doesn't find it it returns a 
553 error. The question is - is it possible to set up an alias or 
something so that he can send out messages via pine, as 
user at virtualdomain? Or is it just something that can't be done?
