Here's what I want to do:
When (incoming) mail is addressed to
user@hostname.domain
I want to change that to:
user@domain
before I deliver it.
Here's what I did:
in main.cf:
recipient_canonical_maps=regexp:/etc/postfix/pfrecipient_canonical
[root@davis postfix]# more pfrecipient_canonical
/^gl@.*\.arlut\.utexas\.edu$/ g...@arlut.utexas.edu
/^a@.*\.arlut\.utexas\.edu$/ a...@arlut.utexas.edu
/^b@.*\.arlut\.utexas\.edu$/ b...@arlut.utexas.edu
/^c@.*\.arlut\.utexas\.edu$/ c...@arlut.utexas.edu
This does what I want it to: it strips out the host part of the
address.
(yeah, that's four trivial/stupid/test users: gl, a, b, c )
Does this have consequences/side effects that I might not expect?
In particular, I have
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/pftransport
also in main.cf . Transport_maps will still be honored, won't it?
I'd test it, but I don't control the other machines in the transport
map, and I have a feeling management will frown on me sending test
messages to other than myself.
Thx, j.
