In main.cf I have: virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual In /etc/postfix/virtual I have the following: # mailman lists.example.com virtual [EMAIL PROTECTED] example-listowner [EMAIL PROTECTED] list-testing [EMAIL PROTECTED] list-testing-admin [EMAIL PROTECTED] list-testing-request [EMAIL PROTECTED] list-testing-admin @lists.example.com example-listowner
In /etc/aliases I have: # mailman example-listowner: rop, etbe ## testing mailing list ## created: 09-Sep-2002 root list-testing: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper post testing" list-testing-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner testing" list-testing-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd testing" #list-testing-owner: testing-admin Now when I send mail from the local machine it all works as expected (I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subject "help" and I get the help message). But if I send mail from outside the network I get the following: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: mail for server.example.com loops back to myself Now lists.example.com is a CNAME pointing to server.example.com. So why is mail sent from the local machine with mailx working, while a message sent on port 25 with the same content is rejected? -- I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software. If you use Outlook then please do not put my email address in your address-book so that WHEN you get a virus it won't use my address in the >From field.
