Hi,

I've been asked to take over maintenance of a Postfix / Cyrus / LDAP
setup, and my background is in Courier / Exim.  I've read as many docs
as I felt I could take in, but I'm still finding the learning curve a
little steep.

My basic problem is that I can't work out how to forward email to more
than one recipient.  For example, let's say I want o...@example.com to
1) be delivered to its Cyrus mailbox as normal and 2) to be forwarded
to b...@blackberry.net and j...@vodafone.net.

(1) Was working anyway, and so was (2) when there was only one email
address to forward to.  I setup /etc/postfix/recipient_bcc with

o...@example.com: b...@blackberry.net

and all was hunky-dory.  However, I then tried

o...@example.com: b...@blackberry.net,j...@vodafone.net

and it failed delivery as
5.1.0 - Unknown address error 550-'5.1.1
<b...@blackberry.net,j...@vodafone.net>:
Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table

What's the correct syntax to do this?  Very grateful for any assistance.

Extra info:
---------------

As an aside, I then tried to do it by changing the LDAP entry for the
email account (my additions inside ----)

22 uid=...@example.com,ou=Mailboxes,ou=E-Mail,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: account
objectClass: mailRecipient
objectClass: inetMailUser
mailHost: captain.oracletc.co.uk
inetMailUserVersion: 2
mailMessageStore: +shared.Operations
uid: o...@example.com
mailLocalAddress: o...@example.com
mailDeliveryOption: CYRUS
----
mailDeliveryOption: FORWARD
mailForwardingAddress: b...@blackberry.net
mailForwardingAddress: j...@vodafone.net
----

But then the users complained that the mail wasn't being delivered to
their IMAP mailbox, and it was being forwarded to the blackberry /
vodafone address around ten times!

If I don't get any replies to this post, I'm quite happy to pay a
small fee for somebody's professional time on this, or make a
charitable donation etc - it just needs to be sorted out ASAP.
