Re: Sender access issues

[Alex Regan]

Hi,

What does the below report (with the exact address from
the unmunged log message):
        $ sender="myuser@lanyonrs.local"
        $ postmap -q "$sender" hash:/etc/postfix/sender_checks

I had "*@lanyonrs.local   OK" in sender_checks and it printed nothing. I
added the explicit email address and it returns OK.

Nothing in the Postfix documentation promises any special meaning
for "*@domain" keys in indexed tables.  If you're going by intuition
and guess-work rather than documentation, you won't get far.

The lookup keys for access tables are documented under:

     http://www.postfix.org/access.5.html

To match every address in a domain, just use the domain as the
lookup key:

        lanyonrs.local  OK

An even better solution is to fix the problem on the sender end,
and use a real sending address.

I even looked at access(5) just before sending this, and have no idea 
how I missed that. I think I need a break. Yes, certainly using a real 
address is the proper solution here.

Thanks for your continued help with this.
