Alas, the docs say:
smtp_generic_maps: Address mapping lookup table for envelope and header sender
and
recipient addresses while delivering mail via SMTP.
Correct.
"ADDRESS_REWRITING_README" on the other hand says:
"... when mail leaves the machine via SMTP"
(emphasis on "leave")
and in "STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README" we see:
"This mapping happens ONLY when mail leaves the machine"
(emphasis on "leave")
One might argue that a delivery to "127.0.0.1" and/or "localhost" does
not really make the mail "leave" the machine.
That particular user now uses an lmtp transport to feed his
content_filter and all is well, but either the docs could be made to
match the behaviour (or the other way round).
shouldn't
== main.cf
content_filter=filter:[127.0.0.1]:10024
== master.cf
filter ..... smtp
-o smtp_generic_maps=
...
do?
