I first thought that creating something like user1, user2, user3 etc... in the Virtual host pane for the main domain would allow me tu loggin with my-name@user1.domaine.com and my-name2@user2.domaine.com using the ZWC but.. I tried and I,
Was dreaming...
It would have been a simple way to allow multiple loggins. I always use several tab in FF or Safari.
I suppose you said it ovoids typing the full login but this is interesting only for domains' name being very long.
What's would be interesting is to implement a way for a user to type a kind of loggin ID that would be unique for all hosted domains and sub-domains and allowing to forget about the domain or sub-domain name no ?
Like this an user would type only a few chars and his/her password and would be directed directly to his/her account.

Yes and I don't really understand why updating DNS is needed in the case I'm mentioning. Once I'm in front of the login session page in the ZWC I'm already connected to the Zimbra server so I don't really understand why I should update DNS for this purpose.

Ok, thanks for all will manage with several browsers as it is the simplest way.
