Hello, Apologies for the length of this post.
My domain is example.com - the server relays all mail for *...@example.com to an exchange server. I have a requirement where I need to redirect email for u...@example.com to u...@bloggs.com. u...@example.com does not exist on our system. What I have done is the following: content of /etc/postfix /virtual -------------------------------- anythinghere.com VIRTUALDOMAIN u...@example.com u...@bloggs.com /etc/main.cf ------------ virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual I have also run postmap against /etc/virtual. - Now - this works fine but!!! This is what I see in /var/log/maillog Dec 4 12:22:40 my_server_name postfix/pipe[7162]: A973D9170E: to=<u...@bloggs.com>, orig_to=<u...@example.com>, relay=spamassassin, delay=3, status=sent (my_server_name) However - the person on the receiving end doesn't get the email - it appears to end up in some administrator mailbox (not much detail - and I haven't been able to get more) - which suggests an over zealous spam filter on their side. I have tested this to my own home account *and* to Hotmail and it worked fine in both cases. So my question is: ------------------ Have I done this correctly? I looked on the postfix site and various man pages - and picked up a hint that perhaps I should be using canonical for this - but I'm not sure.... TIA, - Tony.
