so how should the sender_canonical file look like? Actually it looks like; @server.localdomain i...@example.org
so every email which comes from @server.localdomain (root@server.localdomain, user@localdomain...) should be replaced with the existing address i...@example.org. But this doesn't work always, also the header "From: .." gets changed, i explained that in my first mail.
