Hello ^^)
I have some problems with my postfix install, will report one by one :
I have activated the 'soft_bounce = yes' option in main.cf to see what
happens.
1 / Mail sent by some daemons running as 'root' (here it's Pflogsumm,
per example) with 'r...@server.mydomain.com'
for 'r...@server.domain.com' are bounced/rejected, as reported in
'/var/spool/postfix/defer/' :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<r...@server.mydomain.com>: mail for server.mydomain.com loops back to
myself
recipient=r...@server.mydomain.com
offset=780
dsn_orig_rcpt=rfc822;r...@server.mydomain.com
status=4.4.6
action=delayed
reason=mail for server.mydomain.com loops back to myself
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in the '/var/spool/postfix/deferred' dir I find the 'pflogsumm' mail
for 'root'

as you can see messages sent by 'pflogsumm for 'root' are pruned, and if
I tell 'pflogsumm' to send to me directly messages are delivered fine to
my personal mailbox
I don't understand as in the 'aliases' file I have set 'root:
me@my_email.fr' so mail sent to 'root' should end in my personal mailbox...
Postfix problems should be reported to 'postmaster' too (in aliases it's
set to deliver to root) and it's not, but I don't find any bounced or
rejected/deffered
messages for 'postmaster' in the entire '/var/spool/postfix' dir...
what can prevent the aliases to work there ?
the aliases file :
------------------------------------------------------------
# See man 5 aliases for format
postmaster: root
clamav: root
root: me@my_email.fr
------------------------------------------------------------
there is a lot of warnings at the end of the report too. that warnings
are the reason of my second question/problem :
2 / in the Postfix logfile '/var/log/mail.warn' I find the whole lines
reported in the 'pflogsumm' warnings :

beside the habitual (on debian) 'makedefs.out' warning I have a problem
with my postfix configuration that I don't see how to correct it...

I took the defaults 'SMTP Restrictions' stuff (line 704 to 713) in there
: https://wiki.debian.org/Postfix#anti-spam:_smtp_restrictions
btw now I think 'if this are SMTP restrictions, so why the 'smtpd' at
beginning of line 705 ???' shouln't it be 'smtp' there.
(same question for 'smtpd_helo' at line 711 : shouldn't it be 'smtp' there.)
that will explain the
postconf: warning: /etc/postfix/main.cf, line 705: overriding earlier
entry: smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,
permit_auth_destination, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject...
Thanks by advance to light my (postfix newbee) bulb ^^)
