The generics table.

You have to add:

FEATURE(`genericstable', `dbm /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl
GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/generics-domains')dnl

then create |/etc/mail/genericstable, each entry in this file should be 
something like this
user   from-address

This is like the virtusertable if you have it.
