Because in your Postfix transport maps you have an entry that says mail to the example.org domain is handled by the Dovecot LDA, and the Dovecot LDA doesn't consult Postfix' alias_maps. >I have many email-addresses with [email protected] and NONE of them is >given to [email protected]! Because you don't have any virtual_alias_maps of the form [email protected] somename >And i have in data/aliases INDEED an entry: > >test: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post test" > >So why is "test" not given to this command like the other list-email? Because it is delivered via Dovecot and Dovecot doesn't consult alias_maps. There are at least three ways to fix this. I already gave you the easiest one at the end of my reply at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2010-July/069926.html> The second way is to stop using the Dovecot LDA, and the third way is to download Mailman/MTA/Postfix.py from <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/files/head:/Mailman/MTA/> and replace yours with the downloaded one and add VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN ='some.nondovecot.local.domain' to mm_cfg.py and run genaliases. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
