Thank you very much. For the record, the solution was this: 1) in /etc/postfix/main.cf: ensure alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases ensure mydestination = localhost transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport 2) in /etc/postfix/transport: localhost local: 3) in /etc/postfix/aliases test: |/usr/local/bin/test Then adding a virtual alias from [email protected] to t...@localhost
