Hello all,
I'm having an issue that I believe is coming from Postfix. I am sending mail to an address which contains special characters. Those characters aid me in routing the mail but unfortunately it seems to be rejected before being relayed. The format is as follows, a block of text followed by an "=" followed by more text and a number, followed by a "|" and then numbers @ the <http://domain.com>domain.com ie: "text=option1|<mailto:123456...@address.com>123456...@address.com".
When sending from Gmail for instance I get the following error:

Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 501 501 5.1.3 Bad recipient address syntax (state 14).

Also, I am seeing the following error in Postfix:

'501 5.1.3 Bad recipient address syntax'

Any suggestions or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks


I'm certainly no Postfix expert, pretty straightforward install... but I tried setting up an account, and it worked fine - So, likely anyone who can help you will need / want
postconf -n
entries from mail log showing the reject

Not sure what else... But here's my mail log showing the mail accepted.

I use one main mailbox and /etc/postfix/aliases ...
