I don't understand. To take a couple of your examples:

[virtusertable]
kairus at nbi.ispkenya.com         kairus
lugano at nbi.ispkenya.com         lugano

[sendmail.db]
sales at kenyacomputers.com        saleskcomputers
info at kenyacomputers.com         infokcomputers

I presume that all four right-hand-side addresses are accounts in
/etc/passwd. If so, then what is the difference? i.e. under what
circumstances would you decide to put an account in virtusertable rather
than sendmail.db, or vice versa?
