I am trying to understand sender/recipient names are handled.
Am I correct in that recipient addresses are "rewritten" according to
ADDRESS_REWRITING_README before recipient/sender checks are performed.
check_sender_access and check_recipient_access tables operate
on the envelope address as provided during the SMTP
conversation. But it's not clear this answers the question.
I ask because I have the following setup
vdomains
klam.ca
klam.com
klam.biz
valiases
x...@klam.biz x...@klam.com
vmailboxes
x...@klam.com klam.com/xyz
However, legitimate mail addressed to *...@klam.biz seems to be getting lost.
Is there a better way of getting email addresses to *.klam.biz to
x...@klam.com.
It's not clear what vdomains refers to. Using
virtual_alias_maps to rewrite mail to a different domain is a
valid and common choice. Make sure each domain is listed in
the correct address class, and listed in only one address class.

Check the logs to see what happens to mail.
To report a problem, please see:

I have noticed that there seems to be a fair amount of duplication
between the Postfix default values and the main.cf entries.
Is there a simple way, being a lazy sod preferably automated, way of
cleaning up main.cf.
You can get a list of defaults listed in main.cf with:
# { postconf -n; postconf -d ; } | sort | uniq -d
and then examine the list to decide what to do about it.
(a few entries will always display in this list)
