Sorry, if I sounded confusing, but yes, I meant a list of value for the parameter virtual_alias_maps.
In my old SuSE based postfix (aka SLOX, SuSE OpenExchange) host, I found the following parameter set thusly: virtual_maps= ldap:ldapvuser,hash:/etc/postfix/virtual The above parameter has two items (as a list) which says use ldap first, followed by a hashed virtual db table. At least that is how I interpret it. So, I got thinking perhaps I can use similar config on my new mail host and set the virtual_alias_maps with two values (in a list)as follows: virtual_alias_maps = proxy:mysql:$config/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf,hash:/etc/postfix/vmailbox Translated: look at the mysql first, then look at the vmailbox (db) table. Except, this does not appear to work. In the old SuSE SLOX host, it works. Hope I was able to make it more clear.

You can't (usefully) set the same parameter twice, but some parameters take a list of values... http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#virtual_alias_maps http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail -- Viktor.
