Hello list,
I have set up a home e-mail server with Postfix and Cyrus, and
everything seems to work. There is one matter I'd like to clarify,
though.
Is it so, that if I use "non-Postfix" virtual mail delivery (in my
case, to Cyrus accounts via unix socket using LMTP), I'm supposed to
use virtual_alias_maps, and to perform delivery to a Maildir or mbox
file directly (referred to as "virtual MAILBOX: separate domains,
non-UNIX accounts"), I should use virtual_mailbox_maps and
virtual_mailbox_base instead?
Based on the documentation, my initial impression was that a
virtual_mailbox_maps like
some.em...@example.com imapuser
should do the job, but it didn't deliver some.em...@example.com to
imapuser. virtual_alias_maps did the job, though (see my configs
below). So, is it how it should be, or am I missing something
important here?
Thanks in advance.
