postmap -q [EMAIL PROTECTED] ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap-aliases.cf first

The mailbox someuser exists and i can login with this
user on imap and i can deliver directly using deliver -d
but on mail delivery thrue postfix dovecot is not looking
for someuser. It looks for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
It seems that postfix or dovecot appends the hostname to
the mailboxname. But i cant figure out which of both.
If i change the uid to [EMAIL PROTECTED] on
ldap-server anything works fine. how can i fix this?
Since your ldap query is returning only 'someuser', Postfix is rewriting
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to 'someuser' (since it's an alias), and then
adding its hostname as the @domain part. See here for more detail on that:
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#append_at_myorigin
Your ldap query needs to return the address that you want to pass to
deliver. So, I'm not sure from your email what address you want deliver
to be given, but I'll guess that it should return '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
instead of just 'someuser'. If you are trying to pass deliver just
'someuser' you may need to jump through some hoops in your postfix
configuration... you're probably better off configuring dovecot to deal
with a full email address.
