Greetings list,
With the following config, with the secondary domain anonymized to bd.net:
https://batteen.com/smtpd.conf.txt
and "fem: john" contained within /etc/mail/aliases
%{dest.user} is not expanding to the post-alias address as I expected. Emails
to [email protected] (it's my power company so I can tell if they sold my email,
not anything creepy) are being delivered to /var/mail/batteen.com/fem/Maildir
instead of /var/mail/batteen.com/john/Maildir as I expected.
https://batteen.com/smtpdlog.txt
Man smtpd.conf explains: "alias <table> Use the mapping table for aliases(5)
expansion." which to me implies that "%{dest.user} user part after expansion" would be the
user after processing through aliases. However, in order to get the expected behavior, I must use
%{user.username} instead.
I'm guessing that I've misinterpreted the man page, and would appreciate
correction in my understanding, but on the off chance I have discovered
undesired behavior, I bring it to the list. If anything else in my config is
less than ideal, I would appreciate feedback.
Thank you very much for your time,
John Batteen
