Currently i m using postfix as my mail server. but i m having problem 
when i have to add additionl domain to my server. I can't get the same 
username for 2 domains like hans@xxxxx and hans@xxxxxx  hans@xxxxx and 
hans@xxxxx will be treated as the same user by Postfix. And there is no 
interface for me to admin virtual domain in postfix and as i heard it's 
easy to do it with qmail since qmail has a lot of interface to admin 
like qadmin, vpopmail etc.

I m not an expert in mail server, sorry i wasn't try to compare between 
postfix and qmail. I really need an interface for postfix to admin, and 
if there is no interface for postfix, i thought i will be easier for me 
to do it with qmail
