Hi,
I have noticed that my Postfix (version 2.3.8) is performing a
virtual_alias_maps mysql database query for every email that it is
processing, even if the domain is not listed in virtual_alias_domains.
So for example, I have andybev.com in virtual_alias_domains and a
database query set up for virtual_alias_maps. When I send an email
*from* the server to an external email address, then that recipient (eg
joeblo...@hotmail.com) gets looked up in the virtual_alias_maps database
query first before it is delivered.
Is this normal? This doesn't seem right, so I am thinking that there is
something wrong with my configuration (all of the thousands of outbound
emails are causing database lookups).
Thanks,
Andy
You have outgoing mail being processed by smtpd where it is suppose to
be processed by smtp.
I would tell you how you did this but you didnt include your postconf -n
