Hi,
I'm having a problem with virtual mailboxes. I need to create a
catchall mailbox. One of my engineers wants to run a script on the
mailbox so I really don't want to create an alias to a mailbox in the /
var/spool/imap/user directory. My engineer needs access to this
mailbox, but aside from the local admin account, he only has an ldap
account. (For this initial setup, I used the local account)
I tried to set up this mail box as described here: http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html
, but the mailbox isn't working and I'm getting some strange errors.
For starters, I don't have a relay_domain map (file) or any reference
to it in my main.cf file and yet I'm getting this error in my
system.log:
Feb 2 21:52:15 mailserver postfix/trivial-rewrite[28824]: warning: do
not list domain mynewvirtual.domain.com in BOTH
virtual_mailbox_domains and relay_domains
Feb 2 21:52:15 mailserver lmtpunix[28950]: warning: unable to post
message for user: any...@mynewvirtual.domain.com, mail is not enabled
for this user
In addition, Im getting a warning message that mail is not enabled for
this user but it's a catchall account, there shouldn't be any users,
so I'm somewhat confused. The 502 uid in the postconf output is the
local admin account uid. Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?
I appreciate any help I can get. In addition to the postconf -n, I
also included the referring files.
