If I understand you correct: mail fetched by fetchmail has a recipient address like *@localhost and the mail is then relayed to your smarthost (ISP's smtp server) and rejected there? I think your mydestination setting is wrong and is missing localhost or did you mess up transport? Hard to say without config parts and logs. Regards, Markus PS: OpenBSD 6.4 is no longer supported
