I have an interesting question about logging. Postfix is working fine. I have
one domain, sermon-archive.info, as mydomain. All other domains are listed in
vmail_domains, for example:
lafn.org OK
vmail_users contains:
bc...@lafn.org home_mail/doug/
vmail_alias contains:
bc...@lafn.org doug
When email is sent to bc...@lafn.org, the following line is logged:
Aug 15 11:56:15 mail postfix/pipe[63616]: 4GnmjC1J7cz2fjRj:
to=<d...@mail.sermon-archive.info>, orig_to=<bc...@lafn.org>, relay=dovecot,
delay=0.16, delays=0.08/0.02/0/0.06, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via
dovecot service)
That line has the to field as mail.sermon-archive.info. I am a bit confused as
to why it would be that. It's not wrong, and it works fine. It's just that
the log scanners pick up that as the to address and not the original to so it
looks like everything was sent to the sermon-archive.info address. I would
like to be able to figure out the original to field.
Looking through the man page for pipe, it appears that master.cf has the
default arguments of:
-f ${sender} -d ${recipient}
If I replaced recipient with original_recipient, would that affect the log
message, or cause any issues with delivery to dovecot? Would I be better off
patching the log scanner to pick up the orig_to field?
