Only insofar as mydestination decides what domains to deliver locally. http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#mydestination http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html#mydestination > thufir@dur:~$ > thufir@dur:~$ tail -n 3 /var/log/mail.log > Nov 19 01:30:02 dur postfix/smtpd[13683]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] > Nov 19 01:30:04 dur postfix/smtpd[13683]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from > localhost[127.0.0.1]: 550 5.1.1 <hawat.thu...@gmail.com>: Recipient > address rejected: gmail.com; from=<alpha-boun...@dur.bounceme.net> > to=<hawat.thu...@gmail.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<dur.bounceme.net> > Nov 19 01:30:04 dur postfix/smtpd[13683]: disconnect from > localhost[127.0.0.1] > thufir@dur:~$ > thufir@dur:~$ cat /etc/postfix/main.cf | grep mydest > mydestination = dur.bounceme.net, localhost.bounceme.net, localhost UUOC.
