As you have discovered, Mailman/Postfix integration with Postfix virtual domains uses virtual alias domains, not virtual mailbox domains. If you want/need to use virtual mailbox domains, I'm afraid at this point you're on your own. Mailman supports two delivery methods. The normal method is delivery to a command via a pipe using aliases or some programmatic transport in some MTAs which support it. This is not delivery to a mailbox, so virtual mailbox domains will not support this. The other method is delivery to a MAILDIR. See the comments both before and after the line "USE_MAILDIR = No" in Defaults.py. It is possible to use MAILDIR delivery for addresses in virtual mailbox maps, so you can probably set this up, but you would have to modify Mailman/MTA/Postfix.py to generate the proper maps or maintain them manually. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
