Well, if each email domain does not need to collaborate with each other 
email domains, then yeah, that is the way to go: One phpgw domain per 
email domain (that is, one database for each domain as well).

If you have one organization with multiple email domains it gets um, 
different. In this cases youll want it so applications see the phpgw 
username of everybody regardless of their email domain.

There are different solutions for that. phpWebMaui does something to 
help you.
On the other hand, I have strange and complex patches that make phpgw 
work with vpopmail using soap and kind of adds the email domain as part 
of the administration of a user account (adds a table to the database 
and modifies the preferences of the user from there ).
