Hello Sahil, Thanks for your response. I have not ignored any suggestions so far because I have come here to get suggestions. If I was not able to clarify properly then I am sorry but I discussed what I am trying to achieve. I am very grateful to you as your suggestion is working here. Now the postfix reports for non-allowed domain as ` ` ` ` status=bounced (mail to this destination is prohibited) ` ` ` ` Thanks to all of you. -- জয়দীপ বক্সী
