And, use "proxy:ldap:${config_directory}/ldap-aliases.cf", LDAP servers typically don't like the connection concurrency that results from each smtpd(8) and cleanup(8) using a separate connection. Don't do this, however, with tables that are used by trivial-rewrite, specifically at least: relay_domains mydestination virtual_mailbox_domains virtual_alias_domains transport_maps relocated_maps -- Viktor. P.S. Morgan Stanley is looking for a New York City based, Senior Unix system/email administrator to architect and sustain our perimeter email environment. If you are interested, please drop me a note.
