im actually a little proud of myself... just as this mail was comming in, i am 
finishing up my testing/deployment of this exact configuration.  this was 
exactly what im looking for.

of my 5 domains, i probably have 10 addresses on 1, and then the rest have 
either 1 or 2.  i think for now this configuration is going to be exactly 
what i am looking for, but i wonder what larger organizations who use only 
sendmail, and have this sort of requirment, if this is what they do too?

cheers,
jonathan
