148.252.106.155 is the outside interface on my router.  I have NO idea how that address got picked up. postfix-external-submig had:

mailbox_transport = smtp:[localhost]:10029

When I changed it to:

mailbox_transport = smtp:[127.0.0.1]:10029

The mail went through. Still, I'm concerned how [localhost] got translated to the outside interface. If I do "dig alstadheim.priv.no" on my mailserver, I get that wrong address, from the global DNS-system, but that should have no bearing on looking up "localhost" however, and this is THE SOLUTION:

i had this in /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1    localhost

Changed to

127.0.0.1    localhost localhost.alstadheim.priv.no

Problem fixed, I believe.

So, evidently localhost gets looked up as localhost.alstadheim.priv.no when connecting to the mailbox transport.

% host localhost.alstadheim.priv.no
localhost.alstadheim.priv.no has address 148.252.106.155
% host \*.alstadheim.priv.no
*.alstadheim.priv.no has address 148.252.106.155

perhaps your DNS server does not resolve "localhost" so postfix appended $mydomain?
