Virtualmin & non fresh linux installation

I have a linux server with many domains, each domain has a website and and many email accounts. I'm not using a domain prefix in the usernames but I can identify domain's users by their email in /etc/virtusertable file.

When I use virtualmin import feature it just import dns configuration, apache configuration, but it does'n import any user ( because they haven't any domain prefix) so how can I add these linux users to a virtual server? Is any way to select wich users belong to a virtual server??

Thanks!

Virtualmin doesn't use prefixes to determine membership in a virtual server. Actually, it doesn't use prefixes at all, for anything, ever. We use suffixes for uniqueness purposes, but never for membership in a virtual server--this is another case where names don't matter to Virtualmin. I usually say that in reference to domain names, but it is also true of user names. ;-)

The group determines the membership in a virtual server for a mailbox/FTP user.

You could make those users members of the appropriate group (the one that owns the new virtual server account) and Virtualmin will then know what to do with them.
