Almost correct. I did find the problem. The Yast MTA module has a Masquerading button, which effectively edits sender_canonical and creates the hash. This has worked up until 10.2. This quit working with 10.2, so I did some digging. I believe it still changed the from address, but somehow there was a header line, X-Postfix-Sender (see above), with the original sender. Research seemed to indicate what I needed to use was generic and not sender_canonical. So, I added via POSTFIX_ADD_GENERIC the hash type and path to /etc/sysconfig/postfix, as well as added generic to the postfix maps SuSEconfig creates. I then added the same mapping as in sender_canonical to generic, ran SuSEconfig, and it fixed the problem. So my question I guess, in the interest of making 10.2 a great release, is has postfix changed in this regard, has generic vs sender_canonical changed, which may need a bug report for the Yast module, or have I made some flawed steps in my understanding or troubleshooting? > I can't really comment on the yast module for the postfix > configuration, since I never used it (I always configure all files > manually). > > Sandy I figured as much. I have appreciated your depth of postfix knowledge, Sandy, but for me SuSEconfig's postfix script and the Yast module have done a very good job for the most part, and improving it would help more users in the long run. Thanks again for your thoughts.
