Hey, let me brain dump all I know here. I am using an instance of Postfix that is running on a server setup using Plesk control panel. From what I can make out that means that means they have configured Postfix in a nonstandard way. The reason that Qmail seems to appear is that originally Plesk only support Qmail and when they implemented Postfix they retained /var/qmail/mailnames as the email directory. Sorry I have no idea about the SPF stuff, seems to be how postfix is setup on a Plesk server.
The reason that the chdir is not working is that there is no mail name return+test=bob....@give2partners.org. I need it to strip the email so it delivers it to ret...@give2partners.org address. Can you tell me what is wrong with my VERP configuration that means this is not happening. I have added the following to the configuration file according to http://www.postfix.org/VERP_README.html: recipient_delimiter = + forward_path = $home/.forward${recipient_delimiter}${extension}, $home/.forward propagate_unmatched_extensions = canonical, virtual I appreciate any help.
