The mail to t...@mydomain.com works as it should, but the mail to
i...@myotherdomain.com always ends up in catchallu...@myotherdomain.com.
If I comment the catchall line for @myotherdomain.com, then it does get
delivered to the correct address.
Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Did you try Postfix example configuration for virtual mailboxes?
http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox
I think you're supposed to use $virtual_mailbox_maps rather than
$virtual_alias_maps for virtual mailboxes.

Thanks for your reply Ansgar.
As far as I know virtual_mailbox is used when postfix delivers the
emails to the accounts itself, but I'm using Cyrus to do that. So the
use of virtual_alias should be correct in my setup. Unless I'm not
understanding the example right :)
Then why are you using
virtual_mailbox_domains = mydomain.com myotherdomain.com
When in reality you should be using virtual_ALIAS_domains?

I tried that, but then I'm getting "user unknown in virtual alias
table". I read in the faq that I should list all email addresses for
each of the virtual domains I list in the virtual_alias_domains file,
but I don't really understand how (sorry, kinda new to all this
email-server-setup stuff, could be that my entire setup is completely
wrong tbh). No matter how and what I put into the virtual_alias_maps, it
always gives me that error. I only want the email for particular email
addresses/domains delivered locally to cyrus and possibly rewriting the
email address.
