This is the default value. You don't need this, unless someone
(perhaps an O/S distribution) supplied you with a main.cf file
that overrides the default. The local(8) lists all the delivery
mechanisms and their relative priority... Mail only gets to
home_mailbox if:
- After input rewriting the recipient domain is listed in $mydestination
- local_transport is set to "local"
- alias_maps does not reroute the recipient's mail elsewhere, or the
recipient in question is generated via alias expansion.
- The recipient in question is a system user
- The user's .forward file does not pre-empt mailbox delivery
- mailbox_transport and mailbox_transport_maps don't pre-empt mailbox
delivery.
- mailbox_command and mailbox_command_maps don't pre-empt mailbox
delivery.
See the local(8) manpage.
