Quoting Noel Jones <njo...@megan.vbhcs.org>:
That worked, however I was not "already told" anything, except
Charles
Marcus' recommendation to post postconf -n, which I did.
My apologies, got you mixed up with another thread.
No problem.
The subdomains weren't listed in mydestination, relay_domains was
not
set, which should default to mydestination.
In any case, According to
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#relay_domains, the relay
recipients are supposed to be validated against
relay_recipient_maps.
Since I don't have a relay_recipient_maps, it should reject
anybody who
isn't a local user.
relay_domains defaults to $mydestination and all subdomains of
domains listed there.
I missed the "subdomains" part.
The behavior you see is intended. The docs are correct, but maybe
not explicit enough for everyone. Documentation patches are
always
welcomed, but not always accepted.
I'll pass on updating the docs. Considering that I misinterpreted
them, I'm probably not the right person to submit a change.
Thanks again.
Terry
