That is correct. Aliases are not consulted because the virtual mapping in virtual-mailman is t...@wrightthisway.com test This maps 't...@wrightthisway.com' to 'test'. The unqualified address 'test' is assumed by Postfix to be qualified with $myorigin, which defaults to $myhostname which is 'wrightthisway.com' which is a virtual domain. Aliases only apply to local domains, i.e., those in $mydestination. [...] >sh-3.2# postconf -n >address_verify_sender = <> >alias_database = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, >hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases The above should be in alias_maps, not alias_database. Fixing this may solve your problem, but it I suspect it will not be sufficient. >alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases [...] >mydestination = At a minimum, mydestination should include localhost. >mydomain = wrightthisway.com >myhostname = wrightthisway.com [...] >virtual_alias_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf, >hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/virtual-mailman [...] >Jan 2 23:46:45 wrights-Mac-mini postfix/virtual[81790]: BBA681B43CF: >to=<t...@wrightthisway.com>, relay=virtual, delay=0.1, >delays=0.08/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (unknown user: >"t...@wrightthisway.com") In order for aliases to be consulted, delivery must be 'local' not 'virtual' The solution in your case is to put hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases in alias_maps; add localhost to mydestination and put VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'localhost' in mm_cfg.py and run Mailman's bin/genaliases to create virtual-mailman mappings like t...@wrightthisway.com t...@localhost -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
