Example: everyone_query_filter = (&(accountStatus=active)(%u=everyone)) This is not "simpler" it is simply wrong. The substituted LDAP search filter is parsed by LDAP server, not Postfix. Postfix will not try to interpret a subset of the conditions in the LDAP filter. To make "every...@example.com" an address, create an LDAP object with that address. If the LDAP object needs to expans to all user addresses, make it an LDAP-URI valued group. If the group is large (thousands of recipients), do the expansion on a dedicated list server, not your primary Postfix queue. You mean something like the ldap object below? mail=every...@example.com,ou=Mail,o=example,c=com ObjectClass=referral ref=ldaps://localhost/ou=Mail,o=example,c=com I did that and it does list all ou=Mail,o=example,c=com mail accounts. Then I modified my ldap:everyone mappings to the folowing: virtual_alias_maps = ldap:everyone everyone_server_host = ldaps://localhost everyone_version = 3 everyone_search_base = ou=Mail,o=example,c=com everyone_query_filter = (mail=%s) everyone_result_attribute = mail But it does not work. 550 <every...@example.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown; Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?
