When done, run 'postmap virtual' then restart postfix.
Further example... myOwnSite.com virtual-mine [EMAIL PROTECTED] postmaster [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] dwoods [EMAIL PROTECTED] dwoods @myOwnSite.com /dev/null You could restart postfix with 'service postfix restart', however it's enough (and cleaner) to do 'postfix reload'.
