Rob, thank you very much for the pointers on reposting. I turned off the -v setting on smtpd
The old virtual domain is resumearrow.com. The new, mysql-managed domain, is parallelemail.com If I run a postmap -q on my email address under both domains, the results are the same: [root@miltermatic log]# postmap -q sbr...@resumearrow.com mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual.cf scottwb...@yahoo.com [root@miltermatic log]# postmap -q sbr...@parallelemail.com mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual.cf scottwb...@yahoo.com Because postfix rejects the session at the RCPT command, I don't believe any further details of the session are available for the parallelemail domain: [root@miltermatic log]# grep "sbr...@parallelemail.com" maillog Aug 8 10:33:21 miltermatic postfix/smtpd[10117]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail-qc0-f170.google.com[209.85.216.170]: 554 5.7.1 <sbr...@parallelemail.com>: Relay access denied; from=<sc...@livecareer.com> to=<sbr...@parallelemail.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<mail-qc0-f170.google.com> Postfix did assign a message identifier to the email to resumearrow.com, so I can provide more, non-verbose, session details on that: [root@miltermatic log]# grep "sbr...@resumearrow.com" maillog Aug 8 10:33:07 miltermatic postfix/smtp[10081]: 971C814A805F: to=<scottwb...@yahoo.com>, orig_to=<sbr...@resumearrow.com>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=5.3, delays=0.58/0/0/4.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 from MTA(smtp:[127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 6919414A8066) [root@miltermatic log]# grep "971C814A805F" maillog Aug 8 10:33:02 miltermatic postfix/smtpd[10119]: 971C814A805F: client=mail-qa0-f49.google.com[209.85.216.49] Aug 8 10:33:02 miltermatic postfix/cleanup[10060]: 971C814A805F: message-id=<cc47f0d4.d260%sc...@livecareer.com> Aug 8 10:33:02 miltermatic postfix/qmgr[10053]: 971C814A805F: from=<sc...@livecareer.com>, size=5732, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Aug 8 10:33:07 miltermatic postfix/smtp[10081]: 971C814A805F: to=<scottwb...@yahoo.com>, orig_to=<sbr...@resumearrow.com>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=5.3, delays=0.58/0/0/4.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 from MTA(smtp:[127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 6919414A8066) Aug 8 10:33:07 miltermatic postfix/qmgr[10053]: 971C814A805F: removed Here's the postconf -n output: [root@miltermatic log]# postconf -n alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases body_checks = regexp:$config_directory/usermanaged/body_checks command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix content_filter = amavisd-new:[127.0.0.1]:10024 daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix debug_peer_level = 3 default_process_limit = 30 header_checks = regexp:$config_directory/usermanaged/header_checks html_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.5.1-documentation/html inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost mail_owner = postfix mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq.postfix manpage_directory = /usr/share/man mydomain = miltermatic.hiresites.com myhostname = miltermatic.hiresites.com mynetworks = 67.22.105.2 67.22.105.3 127.0.0.1 67.22.101.154 10.10.17.56 myorigin = $myhostname newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases.postfix queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.5.1-documentation/readme relayhost = 67.22.105.2 sample_directory = /etc/postfix sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix setgid_group = postdrop smtp_connection_cache_destinations = smtp_connection_cache_on_demand = no smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP MilterMatician (0.1) reject_unknown_recipient_domain smtpd_sereject_rbl_client relays.mail-abuse.org.org, unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual.cf Thanks again - I look forward to your ideas on how to troubleshoot further Scott ----- Original Message ----- From: /dev/rob0 <r...@gmx.co.uk> To: postfix-users@postfix.org Cc: Sent: Tuesday, August 7, 2012 6:50 PM Subject: Re: postfix thinks mysql managed email address is remote On Tue, Aug 07, 2012 at 03:28:45PM -0700, Scott Brown wrote: > I recently switched from using flat virtual files to using mysql > to manage a virtual table. http://www.postfix.org/DATABASE_README.html#preparing is worth a read. > Email addresses that were set up prior to the switchover can be > reached.

Just guessing, because you did not show us) is failing, but your permit_mynetworks restriction accepts it locally. > Any help would be greatly appreciated! Repost including NON-verbose logs and postconf -n, plus the output of any relevant postmap -q lookups. Lose the grep: show an entire transaction for one each of working and non-working addresses. Lose the munging, because that will make mail routing issues hard to impossible to diagnose. -- http://rob0.nodns4.us/ -- system administration and consulting Offlist GMX mail is seen only if "/dev/rob0" is in the Subject:
