All users and emails address are actually local with local Maildir on the server. The reason I used the virtual part is because there is aliases that are accepted or should be accepted by one local domain, but not an other and if I do not use that, then all aliases will be there for all domains. Example to make it clear. alias in /etc/mail/aliases man1: man man2: man man3: man now let say there is 4 domains. example1.com to example4 .com If I do not do the virtual domains and virtual users, these will all be valid. m...@example1.com m...@example1.com ...etc as well as m...@example4.com But if I want only the aliases in /etc/mail/aliases to apply to only example1.com and example2.com, I actually use the virtual domains and virtual users with the right info in each one to only allow: m...@example3.com to go to the mailbox of man and same for m...@example4.com. I hope it's not to confusing, but in short if I do not use the virtual part, then any local domains with the same users name will be process by the alias and sent to the maildir place. It's the only way I find to not allow all local domains to have all the aliases valid. Hope it make sense. I will try your suggestion and see.
