Package: postfix
Version: 2.3.8-2+b1
Severity: normal
I tried to use sender_dependent_relayhost_maps this way:
main.cf:
sender_dependent_relayhost_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sendermap
sendermap:
[email protected] smtp:[mx.voelkers.org]
but got this error:
Jun 7 11:43:41 mailout0 postfix/smtp[25599]: fatal: unknown service:
[mx.voelkers.org]/tcp
Jun 7 11:43:42 mailout0 postfix/qmgr[25597]: warning: transport smtp failure
-- see a previous warning/fatal/panic logfile record for the problem description
With this sendermap file it works:
[email protected] [mx.voelkers.org]
also this:
[email protected] [mx.voelkers.org]:25
Sincerely,
Jan

According to the documentation:
sender_dependent_relayhost_maps (default: empty)
A sender-dependent override for the global relayhost parameter setting.
relayhost (default: empty)
The next-hop destination(s) for non-local mail
There's nowhere said that this parameter can hold
a "service field". It is nexthop:port, and "port" part
is looked up in /etc/services if it is not a number.
Thanks,
