Hi friends:

I have Postfix 2.3.3 integraded with OpenLDAP to store my user accounts
and aliases.
I can send/receive emails without problems but when I try to send a
email using sendmail to a alias like this:

$ echo Test | sendmail -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I get an error related to non-existent mailbox in Cyrus IMAP Server. But
 if I send emails trough SMTP protocol using a MUA o from any other SMTP
server then there are no problems dealing with LDAP aliases.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is declared as an alias in my LDAP server.
I have the following settings:

mydestination = localhost, $mydomain, $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain
virtual_alias_maps = ldap:/etc/postfix/virtual_alias_maps.cf,
ldap:/etc/postfix/virtual_groups_alias_maps.cf
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname, $alias_maps,
$virtual_alias_maps

Is it normal the sendmail command doesn't read alias/users stores in an
external backend like LDAP or MySQL?

Thanks, bytes!
