As documented, REDIRECT affects all recipients. It is meant to yank
mail out of its normal path, and was originally implemented for
emergencies (that is also why the feature is not subject to canonical,
virtual alias, or BCC address mappings, and none of this is properly
documented).
In other words, don't use REDIRECT for routine mail processing.
Ok - I'm using the wrong tool for the job. So - please let me rephrase
my question.
What would be the proper way to redirect inbound mail originally
destined for a valid user, to an alias which can be expanded/redirected
through normal handling, based on the sender?
So you want to replace the recipient only some of the time,
but not all of the time. That is not built into Postfix.
Yesterday someone asked for size-dependent delivery paths. With
enough of such features, the mail system becomes really hard to
understand, like firewall rules.
I think a broader statement for what I'm looking for is to be able to
re-write the recipient based on the sender, and vice versa. If Postfix
does not support this, do you know of a tool that does that I can use as
a proxy/filter?
