I have two issues that I believe are connected so I'm putting them into one
submission to the list:
ISSUE 1
====================================
I want to forward root's mail to a local user called mike. The user's email
address is m...@ascendency.net and is a legitimate user on the system, but has
a virtual mailbox. I've added that email address in /etc/aliases and run the
/usr/bin/newaliases command. The problem I'm having is that root's email gets
directed to m...@patton.ascendecny.net instead of m...@ascendency.net resulting
in the following error:
Reason: Remote SMTP server has rejected address
Diagnostic code: smtp;554 5.7.1<m...@patton.ascendency.net>: Relay
access denied
ISSUE 2
====================================
Messages sent to aliases that should point to legitimate email address on the
server return the following error:
Remote host said: 550 5.1.1<$aliasaddr...@ascendency.net>: Recipient
address rejected: User unknown in relay recipient table
I believe both of these issues are related to my configuration of relay_domains
and/or relay_recipient_maps. Please see links below to links all relevant
configuration files.

Email: m...@ascendency.net
The nature of the error messages indicates that you have your address classes
mixed up.
Mydestination holds domains that will be delivered locally.
These can be, but should not trivially be, aliased away to virtual addresses -
it is much simpler to reverse the function of the domains, or use the proper
masquerading or canonicalizing maps.
Likewise, virtual_mailbox_domains holds domains that will be delivered to the
virtual(8) delivery agent - or whatever you use as virtual_transport instead.
Relay_domains contains domains you want to accept mail for, but which you will
always send onwards.
Now:
The problem I'm having is that root's email gets directed to
m...@patton.ascendecny.net instead of m...@ascendency.net
How does it "get directed" ?
Presumably, you aliased root to m...@patton.net.
If, instead, you aliased root to "mike" - don't do that.
You should not use unqualified addresses on the RHS of an alias, unless you
know /exactly/ what the result will be.
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#myorigin
And:
Remote host said: 550 5.1.1<$aliasaddr...@ascendency.net>: Recipient address
rejected: User unknown in relay recipient table
This has nothing to do with aliasing; note that it thinks the address in
question is present in *relay_domains*.
Make SURE that your domains occur in only one address class; specifying a
domain in multiple classes does not work.
This may not be immediately apparent (to you or to postfix) when they are
buried in mysql maps.
(The contents of which would make this certain, instead of conjecture.)

Issue number 1 was a problem with an upstream relay. I have fixed since fixed
my issue. The problem was that the upstream relay was using recipient
verification caching before it even got to my server.
Issue number 2 is still a problem for me. Yes, I have aliased root to
m...@ascendency.net.
Here is the log of what happens:
http://pastebin.com/sXsyuMdH
Feb 15 14:28:29 patton postfix/smtp[63705]: 0BBB41A984F:
to=<r...@patton.ascendency.net>, orig_to=<root>,
relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=0.77, delays=0/0/0/0.76,
dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 Ok, id=63535-10, from MTA: 250 2.0.0
Ok: queued as ABD2A1A9852)
I don't see "root" being aliased anywhere.
Also, NOTE that if $myorigin is not included in $mydestination,
unqualified addresses will /never/ match your local domains - and hence
cannot be delivered locally.
myorigin defaults to myhostname, in your case patton.ascendency.net, and
mydestination does not.
We do not know what your virtual_mailbox_domains contain.
Also, please keep non-postfix logs out of the discussion, as it only
produces noise.
