Hello Edgar,Your suggestion works perfectly fine but I don't understand the
syntax
accept from local for any alias <aliases> deliver to mbox
accept for any relay via smtp://192.168.1.1
For the record, on an openbsd machine I wanted the daily reports to be sent to
an external account on an external mail server.So a mail for
[email protected] should match the first rule but not the second but in
your configuration it seems to match both
Could you explain the magic ?

One can refine that to only do local delivery for a specified list of
addresses in order to avoid risking in the long term to have local delivery to
mailboxes that are never going to be read.
This is what I have (simplified a little bit to not have multiple interfaces
etc.)
# more /etc/mail/mailname example.com
# more /etc/mail/[email protected][email protected]
# grep swa /etc/mail/aliasesroot: swaswa: [email protected]
Note here: the .com instead of the .ccTLD is what I would love to have there,
but it’s not achievable with the current limitations of aliases and mailname in
opensmtpd AFAIK.
# more /etc/mail/smtpd.conf listen on lo0
table aliases db:/etc/mail/aliases.dbtable recipients file:/etc/mail/recipients
accept from local recipient <recipients> alias <aliases> deliver to mboxaccept
for any relay via smtp://relay.isp.net:25 as “@example.com"
This gives you just 2 local email addresses for which aliases will be processed
and risk local delivery, and both of those are aliased away fro the machine.The
second line allows to to email any other email address in any other domain,
including exmaple.com itself, to be sent off to the relay.(the as
“@exmaple.com” is not stricly needed anymore I think)
It’s easier if you accept that locally originating email is sent from
“@machine.example.com” than from “@example.com"
What I’d love to see is the ability to write something like:
accept from local alias <aliases> relay via smtp://relay.isp.net:25
But that just throws a syntax error …
webservers, firewalls, etc. all would benefit from it.

If I'm reading correctly sounds like you are just trying to get

Hello Edgar,
Sorry
This is a very simple question but yet
didn't find the answer.I have a machine m1 which is a webserver.
On
openbsd there are daily reports and I want them to be sent to an
external address.
# grep ^root /etc/mail/aliasesroot: [email protected]
After modifying the aliases files I run the command
# newaliases
My opensmtpd configuration is very simple
listen on lo0
table aliases file:/etc/mail/aliases
accept from local for any relay via smtp://192.168.1.1
delete above line
add following:
accept from local for any alias <aliases> deliver to mbox
accept for any relay via smtp://192.168.1.1
You may need to look into table(5) under credentials in the event
that you need to authenticate to relay through 192.168.1.1.
As I'm writing this message I realise that the line "table aliases
file:/etc/mail/aliases" is useless, but fair enough.
My problem is when I do:
# mail -s "Resolv" root < /etc/resolv.conf
it writes to [email protected] instead of [email protected]
So it looks like the aliases file is ignored. Do you know why ?
What's the right way to do it ?My web server should use my local mail server as
a relay which is going to sign emails etc.
Thank you

Your message is all globbed up. Please resend with full smtpd.conf.
