virtual-mailman contains this type of stuff:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailman
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailman-admin
so this rewrites [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The latter is not a local domain (nor a
relay/virtual...), and is thus forwarded to the relay host. thus the loop.
This is where I am confused. So the masquerading is rewriting
mailman.pediatrics.wisc.edu to just pediatrics.wisc.edu so it then gets sent
on to the relay host?
no, it's not masquerading. do read
http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESS_REWRITING_README.html#standard
exceptionally the part about @$myorigin.
you seem to confuse alias_maps and virtual_alias_maps. alias_maps are
expanded at delivery time by the local delivery agent, which wants unix
accounts. virtual_alias_maps have nothing to do with unix accounts.
I have said this few days ago: use fqdn addresses in virtual_alias_maps.
what are you trying to do with these virtual aliases? and what happens
to -bounces, -subscribe, ... addresses? ... etc.
The virtual-mailman file is generated by mailman,
mine doesn't generate any file... a borked patch?
which also generated an
aliases file that has this:
mailman: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman"
mailman-admin: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman"
this will not work. virtual does not execute commands. this is supposed
to go in alias_maps.
