I've opted to do username.domain.com using the HIERSEP distribution.

I think I'll be writing a HOWTO for what I've done in the near future.  And
I agree, customers aren't happy :-P  Problem is right now, that the Cyrus
LMTPd splits on '@' for SASL/Kerberos realms or something.  Devdas Bhagat is
working on a virtual domain patch for Cyrus IMAPd, and hopefully this issue
will be addressed.
