To deliver (almost) all mail to the smarthost: /etc/postfix/main.cf: myorigin = example.com mydestination = localhost localhost.example.com relayhost = mail.example.net To deliver SOME addresses locally: /etc/postfix/main.cf: virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual /etc/postfix/virtual: r...@example.com root@localhost tar...@example.com tarzan@localhost http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESS_CLASS_README.html Wietse
