Please don't use profane language on-list, David. ;)

See http://slug.org.au/lists/archives/slug/2000/December/msg00864.html for
the reasons why this doesn't happen, and why it makes absolute sense.

You'll have to add local addresses (check the format as described in the
handily commented out manpage within the Debian version of the virtuals
file) to /etc/postfix/virtual and run 'postmap /etc/postfix/virtual' and
restart postfix. For instance:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <user>@localhost
This will make sure that any email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be
delivered locally. Post fix absolutely rocks, but you really have to read
the anatomy document on postfix.org (click the little flowcharty looking
image up the top left).
Hope you're enjoying them. :)
