sendmail virtusertable question

[Craig Sanders <cas@taz.net.au>]

anyone know how to get sendmail's virtusertable to write directly to a
file?

e.g. 

i want to have an entry in /etc/virtusertable like:

	info@virtual.domain	/home/virtual/info

at the moment, any mail sent to info@virtual.domain with this setup
bounces with an error message about being unable to write directly to a
file.


I've faked it for the moment by creating an alias in /etc/aliases
like so "info__virtual.domain: /home/virtual/info", and creating the
virtusertable entry to look like "info@virtual.domain
info__virtual.domain".  it works, but i feel that it's ugly..  

i dont like having to change two config files where one should be
sufficient. 


I don't want to do this with procmail or deliver....they're too slow for
this application (too much overhead in forking another process)


before i start hacking into my sendmail.cf rules, has anyone else done
this?
